Hanuman the Mighty app for iPhone and iPad

Karadi Tales presents the story Hanuman, the monkey with the broken chin, who is celebrated in our mythology for his wisdom, courage and loyalty. Sita, the wife of Rama of Ayodhya, has been kidnapped and taken to the island of Lanka by the demon king Ravana. Only Hanuman can cross the mighty ocean and find Sita.
