Helping children in need with the memory® Joyeux Noël! App

With memory® Joyeux Noël!, Ravensburger Digital supports the charity campaign of the Bayerischer Rundfunk "Sternstunden - Wir helfen Kindern".

 

Good deeds are child's play. This is true all year round. However, now it is doubly appropriate. Ravensburger Digital is making sure of this together with Sternstunden e.V.! Until December 31, 2011, an exclusive edition of the classic game memory^® will be available for the iPhone and iPod touch. All proceeds from the sale of the memory^® Joyeux Noël! App will be donated to the charity campaign "Sternstunden" (star moments) for children in need.

Making good memories

For more than 50 years, memory^® has stood for family entertainment. More than 75 million sold games providing fun and excitement for young and old worldwide speak for themselves. It is easy to see the link between the card game we all remember from our own childhood and the campaign for children in need. With a set of holiday-themed pictures exclusive to the special charity App, the well-known memory^® entertainment continues: three difficulty levels, a single-player mode, a versus mode for two players, and an adventure mode where the number of cards increases in every round.

"More than any other game, memory^® is symbolic of our childhood. We are therefore particularly pleased with Ravensburger Digital's campaign, as it shows that help can be given in a playful way. Thus, helping becomes fun," says Julia Alberts of Sternstunden e.V.

memory^® and charity – never outmoded

At just €0.79, the memory^® Joyeux Noël! App is cheaper than any other memory^® App, but offers the same classic entertainment loved by millions of players around the world. The net proceeds of all downloads are donated in full to the Sternstunden e.V. initiative of the Bayerischer Rundfunk (Bavarian broadcasting corporation), which has been campaigning for children and adolescents in need for approximately 20 years. "We admire the work of Sternstunden e.V., and as children are particularly important to Ravensburger, we are happy to be able to support this good cause with our classic game memory^®," Thomas Bleyer, Managing Director of Ravensburger Digital, summarizes the motivation for creating the special edition. Thus, memory^® Joyeux Noël! is the ideal iPhone stocking filler for little and grown-up family members this holiday season.

 

memory^® Joyeux Noël! is now available at a price of just €0.79 for the iPhone and iPod touch in the iTunes App Store at the following address:
