Twilight for the iPhone™ and iPod Touch®, the first Scene It? game release for the DS extends the popular franchise even further. Now players and fans of the blockbuster film can show off their TWILIGHT expertise anywhere, anytime. Featuring over 500 multiple-choice questions ranging from general knowledge about the TWILIGHT film to in-depth analysis of the first movie, music, audio and video clips - the game will challenge even the most ardent fans.

"We believe bringing the experience to the Nintendo DS is a natural fit for the game, and we are pleased to offer yet another opportunity for fans and players to enjoy the Scene It? Twilight game."
