About the Entry

RED Games, a division of RED Interactive Agency, partnered with A&E Networks to create Planet H – a new entertainment brand from HISTORY, created for kids to explore historical topics and eras through play. Planet H launched mobile-first, with a suite of mobile games that feature popular gaming mechanics, historically-inspired characters and environments, and educational Did You Know facts.

America wasn’t built in a day! Explore five exciting eras of American history through dozens of mini-games and experience what it was like to expand the boundaries of the American frontier.
Frontier Heroes tests your smarts, skills, and reflexes as you work your way through an illustrated version of American history, from pre-Colonial days through the California Gold Rush. Complete era-specific challenges to unlock more exciting adventures, and collect “Did You Knows” to learn mind-blowing facts about the ol’ US of A.
Experience what it was like to be alive during Early American times, the Colonial Period, the American Revolution, life on the Frontier and during The Gold Rush. You’ll get a rush from completing each level and seeing how the challenges and rewards led to the amazing country America is today.

Special Game Features Include:
Play through five Eras of American History with dozens of mini-games.
Collect D.Y.K. facts across this and all other Planet H games.
Master multiple levels of difficulty in each era’s challenges.
Touchscreen optimized gameplay means you’ll be poking, dragging, and shaking for hours!
20+ addicting challenges unique to their historical era.
Throw tea into Boston Harbor, throw Native American tomahawks, pan for gold, help Benjamin Franklin discover electricity, and more!
Highly stylized animation brings the past to life.

HIGHLIGHTS
On launch day, Apple featured Frontier Heroes twice on the App Store in "Best New Games" and "Best New Apps & Games" for kids.
