ZeptoLab<\/em>\u2122 and Ape Entertainment Partner to Tell the Mysterious Story of Om Nom<\/em>\u2122<\/p>\n

SAN FRANCISCO<\/strong> \u2013 December 20, 2011 \u2013 <\/strong>Shazaam! <\/strong>Om Nom\u2122, the loveable character from the award winning mobile game Cut the Rope\u2122, is now a comic book hero! Millions of fans that play Cut the Rope have fallen in love with the adorable green monster. Now, through the new comic series released today in the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch, they will start to learn more about Om Nom and his fascination for candy!<\/p>\n

According to Misha Lyalin, CEO of ZeptoLab, creators of the award winning Cut the Rope game, “The comic book is just the first step in broadening the reach of the Cut the Rope brand. Plush toys, apparel and accessories were recently released in the US. We are expanding all over the world and new items will be rolling out over the next several months. On the licensing and merchandising side, we see tremendous opportunities to bring Om Nom into homes around the world.”<\/p>\n

Based on one of the most downloaded mobile games of all-time, the Cut the Rope No. 1 <\/em>digital comic series begins in a quaint little town where opportunity sometimes knocks, but in thirteen-year-old Evan Coulton\u2019s case, opportunity leaves a plain and uninteresting box on his doorstep. Of course, the surprise contents inside are anything but plain and uninteresting.<\/p>\n

Before Evan realizes what\u2019s going on, both his kitchen and his life have been turned upside down by a little green monster with an endless appetite for sweets. Om Nom\u2019s sugar levels leave him either high on energy or lazily collecting more candy, as he and Evan discover just how much they have in common. Fans can follow the adventures of Evan and Om Nom as trouble unfolds in one of the most anticipated new comic series today.<\/p>\n

ZeptoLab developed the digital comic series in conjunction with Ape Entertainment, who has a proven track record with comic book apps as demonstrated by the company\u2019s success with the hugely popular Pocket God<\/em> digital comic series.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith millions of fans around the world playing Cut the Rope, the new comic series provides the first glimpse into the story of Om Nom,\u201d said Semyon Voinov co-founder, ZeptoLab.<\/p>\n

\u201cApe Entertainment immediately shared our vision for extending the brand into the comic world. The result of their efforts is one of the most interesting examples of how to bring a video game to a new medium.\u201d<\/p>\n

“The Cut the Rope digital comic series is much more than a pages to pixels app \u2013 it\u2019s an experience that taps into the power of iOS and unleashes the world of Om Nom to fans across the globe,” said David Hedgecock, CEO of Ape Entertainment. “We believe this is the exact direction that will satiate comic book fans’ appetite in the digital age, as well as offer a reason to continue coming back to the App Store and local comic shops.”<\/p>\n

The first three issues of the on-going series are currently available on the iTunes App Store at www.apple.com\/appstore\/<\/a><\/strong> – the first issue is free and additional issues are available for $1.99 through in-app purchase.<\/p>\n
