Ya know, it seems to me like Disney is getting a bit desperate to promote Fish Hooks. I mean, a free iPhone/iPod/iPad app? That’s a new trick.

DISNEY CHANNEL LAUNCHES “FISH HOOKS” GAME FOR IPHONE, IPAD & IPOD TOUCH
— Fish Hooks Available Now from the App Store —Disney/ABC Television Group’s Digital Media team is launching “Fish Hooks,” a new physics-based puzzle game for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch based on the popular Disney Channel series of the same name. The game is available for free from the App Store in more than 70 countries.
Fish Hooks features Milo the fish and a host of his aquatic friends from Freshwater High. In the game, the ever “crabby” Randy Pincherson lives up to his mischievous ways, challenging Milo to an elaborate obstacle course game that he has created. Players assume the role of Milo and must master the art of making and popping bubbles to successfully navigate the treacherous waters of Randy’s diabolical design. Fish Hooks voice talent Kyle Massey (Milo) and Joshua Sussman (Randy) provide the voice over for the game.
Players will float, fall and fling themselves through the mazes to advance, all while maneuvering with great precision. Perfect timing and puzzle solving skills are essential to avoid the increasingly difficult obstacles and master all of the underwater moves needed to win.
Game features include:
* Over 50 levels of marine madness
* The ability to unlock 5 of Milo’s best friends that can be used as player characters in the game
* Master the art of bouncing off turtles
* Surf whirlpools, fly through tubes and free fall
* Collect apples in each level and to get the highest score
* Beat Randy Pincherson at his own game and win back the trophyFish Hooks is an inventive animated comedy series, set inside a giant fish tank in Bud’s Pet Shop. It presents high school life as seen through the eyes of three BFFs (best fish friends), Bea, Milo and Oscar. Together they experience life’s typical challenges and triumphs, including friendship, dating and sports, along with more atypical situations such as giant lobster attacks and, with the use of special land suits, school field trips to the hamster cages. The series was created by children’s book illustrator Noah Z. Jones and features a notable voice cast, including: Chelsea Kane (“Baby Daddy,” “Dancing with the Stars”) as Bea, Kyle Massey (“Dancing with the Stars,” “Cory in the House”) as Milo and Justin Roiland (“The Sarah Silverman Program”) as Oscar. New episodes of “Fish Hooks” air Fridays on Disney Channel.
