Arkadium is a developer of casual social games, offering up titles via social portals such as Facebook. Now despite claims that the gaming industry has a tough time cracking the social market, Arkadium’s Mahjongg has done quite the opposite on Facebook, in just two months time.
The reality is that there are more social gamers than hardcore gamers, and the biggest hurdle for reaching social gamers with a product comes in the form of reaching social gamers with the right kind of marketing. Games like Armies and Mafia Wars have seen huge successes on social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook and Arkadium believes that they’re just getting started with platinum status casual games. According to Kenny Rosenblatt, CEO of Arkadium… “We are extremely excited to have exceeded the one million user mark in such a short time frame. Now that we have proven we can successfully build an audience on Facebook, our primary focus will be to further monetize it,” …. “Many of the 300 games in our library have the DNA to become great social games. We plan to follow the same recipe we did with Mahjongg Dimensions and replicate this success over and over again.” Arkadium is scheduled to release five more Facebook game apps by the second quarter of this year.
