Jungle Rumble drums up Patapon-styled action on iOS, Android

Jungle Rumble to bring Pataponstyled action to iOS


A Boston Indie Game Collective initiate, Disco Pixel, will launch its simian-themed "rhythm-RTS" Jungle Rumble for iOS and Android devices later this year.

Described as a mixture of Sony's tribal rhythm game Patapon and Nintendo's strategy classic Advance Wars, Jungle Rumble puts players in charge of a family of monkeys suffering under the oppressive rule of a rival tribe. Using rhythmic taps as a means of communication, players will assemble the Mofongo tribe and lead it on a quest for "freedom, happiness, and bananas."

Jungle Rumble will be playable at PAX Prime's Indie Mega Booth next weekend in Seattle.
