Large Animal Games, independent developer of unique social and mobile games, announces the worldwide release of their Nomsters mobile game on Thursday, December 6th. The game will be available for iOS devices, with Android and social network versions soon to come.

Nomsters is a puzzle-arcade game that blends aspects of pinball and pool for a thoroughly original play experience. Players lead a band of lovable characters called Nomsters on a mission to save their fresh fruit from an invading army of evil Fruit Flies, guiding them through levels full of gates, bumpers, thieving Flies, and other challenges. Alongside an extensive single-player campaign Nomsters features a multiplayer mode for one-on-one competition with Facebook friends.

To promote the game, Large Animal has partnered with competitive eating champion Takeru Kobayashi for an event that will widen Nomsters’ audience long after the game’s launch. Once Nomsters players worldwide collect a total of one billion in-game fruit, Large Animal will host a record-setting fruit eating challenge in New York City, featuring the world-famous competitive eater himself.

“As Large Animal’s first independently funded and published mobile game, Nomsters represents an exciting new direction for us,” says Wade Tinney, CEO of the company. “We couldn’t be happier to bring this blend of fast-paced, arcade-puzzle action to mobile gamers around the world. We’ve fallen in love with the Nomsters and we hope others will too.”
