Monty Python Cow Tossing coming to iOS, mobile handsets

Physics puzzler sucks from the Angry Birds teat

Monty Python Cow Tossing coming to iOS, mobile handsets

A mad take on the popular physics puzzler, Monty Python Cow Tossing will soon offer its own hilarity on iOS and select mobile handsets.

The quirky game has you flinging cows via a spiky catapult in order to hit armoured Englishmen who foolishly assume they're safe in makeshift structures of concrete and wood.

Sound familiar? Angry Birds is clearly the inspiration, though developer Zed promises a number of features that ought to set it apart.

For instance, power-ups such as the Holy Grail litter each of the game's 80-plus levels on iPhone and iPad. There are upgrades to purchases for your catapult and different types of animals to throw including the infamous African swallow.

Naturally, the feature and graphics are pared down for mobile handsets, with the iOS releases getting a more robust presentation and list of features including Game Center integration.

Check out the video below of the iPhone version in action.

Monty Python Cow Tossing will be available for iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and select mobile handset within the next few weeks; no price has yet been announced.
