Taking over a decade of experience publishing and growing games like Crossy Road, Rodeo Stampede, and Ski Safari into global hits, we provide products and services that range from helping new arrivals to the app store optimize ad revenue, driving a 50x player increase for games such as Animal Revolt Battle Simulator, and bringing iconic IP from companies like Hasbro, Paramount, Legendary, and MGA to globally-recognized studios the likes of Rivergame, Candivore, 37Games, and more.

We love games, we play games, we grow games.

What We Believe | How We Work

We believe in the future and power of the mobile gaming industry and that everyone deserves an equal opportunity to build a life they love through games.

We believe you know when and where you do your best work. We are fully remote by design and we WFA: Work From Anywhere. We don’t impose hours or limit time off.

  • SMART. You work and communicate in ways that are specific, measurable, actionable, relevant, and timebound.

What We Expect

  • Onboard and coach studios when they first start working with us on various aspects of their games.
  • Develop a good relationship with the studios to ensure you can close those that show potential.
  • Analyze the games from a metrics, gameplay, and design point of view and share your assessment with our teams.

  • Serious passion for gaming and deep knowledge of mobile games.

You Might have:

WFA. Work from anywhere in the world, travel when and where you like, get paid in your currency of choice, and enjoy flexible hours and unlimited paid time off.

Community. Work with an energetic, fast-learning, supportive, and diverse team of Yodies across six continents and 30+ countries who share and support new ideas and get things done.
