'The Secret Life of Pets' Movie Gets a Fun Android and iOS Game
Illumination Entertainment, the production company behind animated feature films like Despicable Me, The Lorax, Despicable Me 2 and Minions, is about to put out a new movie: The Secret Life of Pets, a comedy about the lives our pets lead after we leave for work or school each day.
The movie’s protagonist is Max, a terrier who lives in a Manhattan apartment building with his owner Katie. Everything is going along smoothly until Katie brings home another dog – a giant of a dog called Duke. Max’s life is turned upside down, hilarity and adventure ensue.
Accompanying the movie is a fun match-3 game called The Secret Life of Pets: Unleashed. Unlike the movie, which you still have to wait for because it's scheduled to be released on July 8 in the US, the game is available for download on Google Play and on Apple’s App Store right now.
Before you go get the game, here are the main things you need to know about it. It features the classic match-3 gameplay that everyone in the world is familiar with. It features all the characters from the movie, which you’ll get to unlock as you progress through the game. It's been published by EA, so expect in-app purchases.
"We at EA are thrilled to work with Illumination Entertainment, the creators of the record-setting Despicable Me and Minions franchise, to bring you the official matching puzzle game for The Secret Life of Pets," said Michelle Bizzarro, Game General Manger at EA. “Together, we set out to combine the features, functionality and challenge of a Match-3 game with the story-line and humor of an animated feature so you can interact with these insanely cute pets before and even after watching the film."
