We’ve found the best word to define it: “buzz”. In the first month of “Urki, beyond the forest” on the App Store, we’ve received a few memorable reviews we wanted to share with all of you.

Ahgoo Review: “This is a unique and interactive story that will entertain children for hours.”

iHeartThisApp: “The illustrations, graphics, animations, sounds are quite good and will really give you a feeling of entering a different world“.
Note: “Urki, beyond the forest” was featured as “App of the week” on this blog thanks to the votes of the readers.

Apps Mama: “If your kids love reading and they enjoy fascinating adventures, this is a perfect gift. “Urki, beyond the forest” is a quality book, well written, with sounds, images and interactivities that they are going to love (and so do parents).

DbReaders: “The magic atmosphere is all around you on every page!”.

Los Cuentos de Bastian: “Every page is a mystery, not only for what it tells, but also what you can find inside. In the middle of the story there’s a surprise for the most fearless where the reader can see the advantage of an interactive book… This time, you’ll find the additional features inside the book”

Thanks to all of you for giving us such a splendid welcome!

Tenemos el gusto de presentaros nuestra nueva aplicación para iPhone y iPad.

Es un disco del grupo 57 grados, titulado “Se ha acabado el carnaval”, con sus tres componentes, bajo, guitarra, voces coro, batería y 11 canciones. Hasta ahí todo bien. Pero “Se ha acabado el carnaval” también tiene relatos (once concretamente, uno por cada canción) …pero además cada canción y cada relato van acompañados de una receta de cocina (once…qué casualidad) así como una ilustración (sí, once)…
57 grados son un grupo de rock de Madrid, que decidieron sacar su primer disco “Se ha acabado el carnaval” sin discográfica y sin más promoción que internet, redes sociales y defenderlo en directo…que es de lo que se trata el rock al fin y al cabo. Para termina de cuadrar el círculo, “Se ha acabado el carnaval” se editó en formato disco libro y con la ayuda de mucha gente: una escritora, un fotógrafo, artistas ilustradores, un cocinillas, además de músicos y hasta invitados especiales a los conciertos, que se unieron para dar a luz a este “wiki libro” del que sólo se han editado 150 copias.

Ahora, desde PixelMoon,  os ofrecemos la posibilidad de descargártelo en tu iPhone y tu iPad. Una oportunidad de escuchar rock del de siempre (bajo, guitarra y batería) …pero de otra manera.

Podéis seguir las aventuras de 57 grados en su página web: www.57grados.es

And he feels alone.

But he knows one thing for sure: the answer lies beyond the forest …

There he’ll find talking animals, fearsome beasts from another time, unique creatures, ruthless armies, winged princes …

Urki will deal with all these creatures with two weapons: intelligence and kindness.

Do you dare to go out with him beyond the forest?
