online fan base, can enjoy its tried and tested products.
Anna Wilson, International Sales
Manager at MGA, commented, "Our games are ideal for mobile, we have
fast play slots with the classic Spanish three reels and the 3x5
bingo cards, so they work really well on small screens. Since
mobile is obviously the future, working with Odobo is an obvious
and exciting choice. They bring us a fast route to market with big
name operators already licensing content from their Marketplace
across all mediums - desktop, tablet and mobile. It's the right
time to be working together."
Ashley Lang, Founder and CEO at
Odobo, said, "Having MGA bring its games to Marketplace is a real
privilege. Its games have a distinct pedigree and with our modern
HTML5 technologies and toolkit, we're in a good position to open
the gateway to players on all devices. Games developed for the
Odobo Marketplace are made available to players on desktop, mobile
and tablet with just one client build. Games are also added to our
new consumer app, Odobo Play, to assist in marketing via a
completely new channel. MGA already has hundreds of thousands of
players on Facebook alone, and we're excited to be a part of being
able to offer these games to new players in regulated markets."
The first games are expected later in the year and on build will
ensure that the titles are available to players on iOS, Android and
Windows devices.
