Cover Match Album Art Memory Game Available for Apple iPad

Williamsburg, VA, April 05, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Hunter Research and Technology announces the availability of Cover Match 1.1 in the iTunes App Store. Cover Match is a mesmerizing match game that uses album art from a user’s music library. The game was featured in the “New and Noteworthy” section on iTunes after its introduction in November 2009, and became a top selling game in the music category.

Previously available for the iPhone and iPod Touch, Cover Match 1.1 has been redesigned into a universal application that also runs on the new Apple iPad. A custom iPad layout takes advantage of the device’s larger, high resolution screen, and can be used in any orientation, landscape or portrait. “Using album cover art as the basis for a match game results in a rich visual experience and makes for very compelling game play” says Todd Hunter, Cover Match co-developer. “On the iPad’s beautiful new display, the level of detail and fidelity is totally stunning, and the rendering performance is outstanding.”
Pricing and Availability:
Cover Match works on any iPhone or iPod touch running iPhone OS 3.1.3 or later, and iPads running OS 3.2 or later. The game is available for $1.99 (USD) on the iTunes App Store.
