HIT Entertainment and Discovery Bay Games have launched a new Thomas & Friends-branded iPad game and Duo accessory.

The Thomas & Friends Steam Team Station is a physical play device for the iPad that interacts with three app games, “Steam Engine Relay,” “Sodor Spot-It” and “Seek & Find Adventure.” Kids jump, skip and race with all of their engine friends, interacting with the Steam Team Station while playing the games on their iPad.

The Thomas & Friends Steam Team Station Duo accessory is now available at Apple Stores and Apple.com, Amazon, Target and Toys ‘R’ Us, with the “Thomas & Friends Steam Team Station” Duo app available for free on the Apple App Store.

“We’re proud to collaborate with Discovery Bay Games on the launch of this innovative, new product that offers a unique play experience combining physical and digital interactivity,” says Natasha Fishman, senior director, digital media and marketing, HIT Entertainment. “Steam Team Station adds a new dimension to the Thomas product portfolio, and we are thrilled to bring this new experience to fans of the No. 1 blue engine.”
