Prova Modelo – Inglês Elementar CFS/QP Angry Birds theme park to launch in Finland It has millions of fans across the world – including English Prime Minister David Cameron - and now Angry Birds is getting its own theme park. Angry Birds Land, which is based around the popular smartphone game, will open on 28 April in Finland, where the game was first designed. The theme park will be based in Särkänniemi Adventure Park in Tampere and will feature rides and amusement park games, as well as a ‘Magic Place’ area with interactive games. Visitors have been told to expect an ‘interactive entertainment experience’. MiikkaSeppälä, the chief executive of Särkänniemi Adventure Park said: ‘We wanted to create a unique themed area and associate it with a strong and well-known brand. ‘The Angry Birds characters were born in Finland but are known worldwide by people of all ages. This is a perfect idea for our Adventure Park. ‘Our goal is to motivate the fans, both adults and children, to exercise and enjoy the outdoors.’ Sneak previews of Angry Birds Land will be shown on the Park's website and on the Angry Birds Facebook page this spring. This simple game is now the number one paid application software of all time and it has been downloaded over 700 million times since its launch. Players use catapults to fire infuriated birds at green pigs hiding inside buildings made of planks. The 59p game, which was developed by Finnish gaming company Rovio Entertainment, has spawned a series of spin-offs including Angry Birds toys and clothing. A Hollywood movie is also said to be coming up. An unlicensed Angry Birds theme park was launched in China in September last year. Visitors to the park were invited to use a giant catapult to shoot Angry Birds spongy toys at green pig balloons floating around a toy brick fortress. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/travel/article-2107107/Angry-Birds-theme-park-launch-Finland.html (abridged and adapted) Página 1 de 9 Prova Modelo – Inglês Elementar CFS/QP Part I A.
