GORILLA BAND is a highly interactive story book app, developed for publisher studio Wasabi. Awarded a QED seal for ‘Quality, Excellence, Design’ in the 2014 Digital Book World Award, Gorilla Band delivers an immersive 3D jungle-world and a cast of cute gorillas who learn to play instruments and form a brilliant band.
Crafted with touch screens in mind, this story invites readers to play an active role in the narrative, delivering an experience that is deeply engaging, entertaining and educational for early readers.
