Disney has released a console version of Frozen Free Fall
Yesterday, September 15, Disney released a three-in-a-row Frozen Free Fall: Snowball Fight game ported from mobile devices on consoles and PCs.
While some companies are releasing console classics on mobile platforms, thereby earning on the nostalgia of no longer young gamers, Disney decided to port one of its casual hits to traditionally hardcore platforms: Steam, PlayStation and Xbox.
Frozen Free Fall: Snowball Fight differs from the original in the presence of PvP, in which two players on the same screen can compete with each other in scoring speed. Otherwise, it’s still the same three-in-a-row with 285 levels.
On smartphones and tablets, the original Frozen Free Fall, whose iOS version was released in November 2013, has collected more than 100 million downloads. Moreover, it not only reached high positions in the world’s box office tops (the game reached the 16th place in the American general box office iPhone chart), but for a long time it held on to them.

Therefore, the choice of Disney in relation to the product is quite understandable: if it is not him to transfer, then who? At the same time, the reason that prompted the company to start expanding its mobile shareware projects to new, non-standard platforms for such products is still unclear.
On the contrary, it is clear how the users of the sites will meet the project. For example, by now there are more than 200 negative reviews on Steam, and the most positive one sounds like this (the punctuation and spelling of the original is preserved):
The game is great, it plays right into itself. Constantly writes that YOU are the BEST! The little girl claps her hands and points to the donation. I kicked some kid with snowballs in co-op mode. I sold a deer for three rubles, the best investment in my life. Sapozhechek jumps on the map, you can even just watch him and donate.

However, in fairness, there are more positive ones – for 300 comments.
