TT Games Acquires Mobile Developer Playdemic
Wilmslow-based Playdemic know the mobile market. With successful titles like Golf Clash and Village Life under their belt, they've raked in 50m downloads and generate millions of dollars in profit from their titles. TT games on the other hand, are inexperienced in the mobile market, so in order to branch out, they've bought the small studio, with the aim of using their expertise to help them create mobile LEGO titles.
“We couldn’t be happier to bring on board such a talented and capable team,” said Tom Stone, Managing Director, TT Games. “Playdemic brings a unique set of skills to complement our existing studios, and a tremendous track record on mobile. They’re a perfect fit – and will enable us to take advantage of exciting new opportunities to build new kinds of socially-connected LEGO games.”
“This is a wonderful opportunity for our company,” said Paul Gouge, Playdemic CEO. “We built Playdemic to create innovative, meaningful mobile games with high production values, which deliver a uniquely social, incredibly fun and shared experience for our players – and cannot imagine a better context in which to continue that work. We’re all huge fans of the LEGO Group and the LEGO games made over the years by TT Games, and we’re tremendously proud to be able to make a new contribution to that legacy.”
