Cartoon Network UK launches mobile app to push animated shorts

UK kids broadcaster Cartoon Network has launched Mixels Rush, a mobile app inspired by the network’s animated shorts.

Mixels Rush encourages players to use new Mixels and make combinations to outrun the cloud of stampeding Nixels. Featuring a host of new Mixel characters from tribes both new and old – including the Frosticons, Klinkers, Orbitons, Glowkies, Lixers, Infernites, Munchos, Glorp Corp and Weldos – the Mixels need help to overcome obstacles and stay ahead of the Nixelstorm.

Mixels can be made even more powerful by mixing them together, or combining three Mixels from the same tribe to create an unstoppable Max. Players will also be offered an array of items: some can be used for speed, some can be used on the Nixels, but whatever you do don’t let those pesky Nixels catch up or it will be game over. Mixels Rush is available now from the App Store, Google Play and Amazon.
