“Rio combines the signature AAA production values and depth of Plarium’s flagship mobile titles with the casual gameplay of Match-3 to create something really special,” says Gabi Shalel, CMO of Plarium. “Knowing how much fans love the energy, characters, and adventures of the Rio world, we had to go beyond what people expect from a typical Match-3 game. With accessible, yet challenging gameplay, detailed 3D character animations, lush environments, and fully-voiced interactive dialogue, we feel that we’ve set a new gold standard for the genre.”
Players will work their way through hundreds of levels as they master special challenges, meet new characters, unlock unique abilities, and collect everything they need to throw parties across the exciting destinations from the films. With offline and online gameplay modes, players can go it alone or compete with their friends for top scores, free gifts, and tournament rankings.
