Cyprus-based mobile games developer and publisher announced that the purchase of the entirety of the Turkish mobile game studio Good Job Games’ hyper-casual games portfolio has now concluded. Good Job Games has over 35 games, amassing over 2.5 billion downloads in total.
Azur Games will continue with the development of those games as the acquisition does not involve the purchase of the company or its development teams.
Dmitry Yaminsky, Co-Founder of Azur Games, said, “The remarkable success of these games is a testament to the talented team at Good Job Games who crafted projects that truly captivate players. I am confident that these projects still hold immense potential, which we aim to unlock through our marketing expertise and experience, allowing GJG to focus on fresh endeavors. This is an excellent opportunity for us to enhance our portfolio with high-quality projects.”
Nazım Akmandil, Co-founder of Good Job Games, said, “Our focus has always been, and continues to be, making an impact in the genres we work on. We are proud of what we have achieved in the hyper-casual genre, and we are very excited about the future of our projects in the capable hands of Azur Games. As we move forward, we are setting our sights on leveraging our vast experience to focus on making an impact in more genres.”
Azur Games also announced the acquisition of the portfolio of hyper-casual mobile games from U.S. publisher Tastypill. The deal involves acquiring all the existing gaming assets and related intellectual property while Tastypill will continue to develop new casual games independently.
Tastypill ranks among the top 15 United States headquartered game publishers by worldwide downloads, with more than 1 billion downloads.
