Breaking Bad: Alchemy – The Ultimate Interactive Series Guide, Available Exclusively on iBooks

The final 8 episodes Breaking Bad are coming up in just over a week (on August 11th), and Sony has come up with a new way to help fans get the very most out of the series that they can right up until the end: A brand new interactive companion for your iOS device!  Breaking Bad: Alchemy, recently released as an iBookstore exclusive, is packed full of bonus material, including over 100 pages of new original content, behind the scenes peeks at the show, stories relating to each season that has aired, and more.

Aside from providing a healthy amount of exclusive content, the book also serves as an interactive guide, helping you catch up on the series, filling in gaps that simply watching the show may have left you in the dark about, an interactive timeline of all of the show’s characters, exclusive interviews, and much, much more.

Here’s a statement we received from Sony announcing the new book:

Sony introduces the “Breaking Bad” Book interactive experience, available exclusively on the Apple iBooks platform. This eight chapter book is an innovative way to experience the ground breaking evolution of the show and provides an immersive ‘catch up’ heightening the anticipation level for the debut of the final episodes August 11 on AMC.

The multi-touch iBook highlights the unique visual, intensive music selection, aural, narrative and filmic elements that make this one of the most magnetic shows in television history. Filled with interactive games and activities, fans are challenged to test their knowledge and invited to re-color pivotal moments. As the final chapters of the series unfold, the book will be updated with new scenes, capturing the full legacy of Breaking Bad.

In addition to the 30-second YouTube preview above, Sony also supplied us with this extended 70-second preview that packs a bit more of a punch. You can also download an exclusive sample of the book through iTunes on your Mac, or through iBooks on your iOS device. Even better: The book will be updated once the final episodes have been shown, turning the app into an essential almanac covering the entire collective series.

Breaking Bad: Alchemy is available now for $7.99 through Apple’s iBook store, and promises to be a brilliant interactive companion that should leave a grin on the face of any Breaking Bad fan.
