Amazon Appstore announced the release in this tweet late last night.

A few weeks ago, we reported Draw Something hitting 50 million downloads on the Apple Store in about two months after its release, making it the fastest growing mobile app in history.
As you may already know, OMGPOP was purchased by Zynga not too long ago, giving them complete dominance in the Facebook App market.
As a Kindle Fire owner, I say it’s about time. Leave it to Amazon to release an app way too late. The time to do this was a couple months ago when Draw Something was just taking off. The touchscreen on the Kindle Fire lends itself perfectly to the app, and it is much larger than the iPhone screen. By the time I got Words with Friends on the Kindle, everyone I knew had stopped playing. I hope that is not the case with Draw Something.
For now, that doesn’t seem to be the case. But who knows how long Draw Something can sustain this kind of massive popularity.
