the Angry Birds are in their final descent to your local Walmart! Angry Birds Space,
the newest version of the world’s most-downloaded mobile game from
Rovio Entertainment, will touch down in app stores tomorrow, March 22,
and only Walmart customers will be able to access “Golden Eggsteroid”
clues that unlock four bonus levels in the game. For the first time,
Walmart has joined forces with a leader in mobile entertainment to
provide its customers with an integrated online and in-store gaming
experience.
The remaining clues will be embedded in select limited-edition Angry Birds merchandise available in Walmart stores, including apparel, plush toys, mobile phones, snacks and more. This first-of-its-kind retail gaming experience launches on Facebook today and catapults into more than 3,000 Walmart U.S. stores on March 25.

This is just one of many exciting partnerships Walmart is forging to give our customers access to exclusive content.”
