Introducing Sugar Blast! – a fresh (and fruity, and chocolatey) slice of tap-to-match gameplay 

By Max

Sugar Blast launches globally today, bringing approachable gameplay and a whimsical theme full of delicious sweets to app stores all over the world.

Today, Rovio introduces Sugar Blast, a deliciously fun and casual tap-to-match game with a sweet coating. Previously in soft launch, the game now brings its delightful puzzle gameplay to app stores (iOS/Android) around the world.

Sugar Blast is all about super simple and satisfying gameplay, combined with eye-popping (and mouth-watering) graphics and adorable characters. Headlining this confectionary-filled bonanza are Maple and her cute jellybean companions, guiding players through thousands of levels.

At the heart of Sugar Blast is a popular gameplay style that’s derived from another of Rovio’s recent releases, Angry Birds Dream Blast (released: January 2019). Encouraged by the success of Dream Blast’s unique and instantly accessible gameplay, Sugar Blast riffs on the Dream Blast format and amps it up with a fresh visual theme.

“The mission with Sugar Blast was to create a compelling visual theme that introduces our proven gameplay to an even wider audience,” says Alex Pelletier-Normand, Rovio Head of Games. “As a result, the team has done a fantastic job creating a cute and vibrant world that fits perfectly with the game’s satisfying and stress-free feel. I’m pleased to say we now have two games in our portfolio which, while leveraging the same novel core gameplay, co-exist happily through their appeal to different audiences.”
