Snuggle Truck is a 2011 side-scrolling platformer game developed by the American studio Owlchemy Labs. Originally, the game was titled Smuggle Truck, and it involved smuggling immigrants across the United States border; however, it was rejected by the App Store due to its controversial subject matter. The characters were swapped for stuffed animals, now revolving around getting them into a zoo, and the game retitled Snuggle Truck in 2011.[1] Since then, approximately two million copies have been downloaded for iOS, with 1.3 million downloads during the 9 days after going free-to-play.[2] On March 26, 2012, both Snuggle Truck and Smuggle Truck were included in the Humble Bundle for Android 2, though the latter is only available on Android.[3] On February 3, 2012, it was released on Windows through Steam.[4]
