Social gaming giant Zynga has expanded the range of branded content offered through its Hit it Rich! slots app with the launch of a new game based on the cult TV film Sharknado.The game is now available on iOS, Android, Amazon Kindle and Facebook, and combines an authentic online slots experience with social features such as bonus games, gifting and communications with friends. It also allows players to unlock and watch clips from Sharknado.
The game is based on the film, which saw a hurricane pick up sharks from the ocean and attack humans. It aired last year and quickly became a cult hit, prompting the producers to make a sequel.
The game has been released ahead of the premiere of Sharknado 2: The Second One, which is due to air on the US channel Syfy on July 30th.
The launch adds to the selection of branded slots available through Hit it Rich!, which was developed by Zynga’s social casino subsidiary Spooky Cool Labs.
