About "The Muppets: On With The Show"


Developed by Vicarious Visions, this laugh-out-loud, handheld title features eight mini-games, two of which are unlockable, and is sure to entertain kids of all ages:


    --  Kermit the Frog(TM) tries to entertain with his banjo from a         boat, while simultaneously avoiding Muppets swimming through         the (cardboard) waves. Miss Piggy(TM) keeps horning in on the         act.


    --  The Swedish Chef's(TM) cooking show turns into a pitched         battle with the rats who keep stealing his weird food items.


    --  Dr. Bunsen Honeydew(TM) and Beaker(TM) frantically work to         avoid the typical disaster involving strange equipment and         bizarre ingredients.


    --  The Great Gonzo(TM) wows the audience with his daredevil         motorcycle act. He drives through the obstacles. Ouch!


    --  Miss Piggy rescues Kermit the Frog from the giant Jurassic         Pork that emerges from Bunsen and Beaker's new time machine.


    --  Animal's(TM) musician friends, the Electric Mayhem Band(TM),         all want to get in on his act and jam together -- with mixed         results!

THE LAMB IS WATCHING!
