develops
its
“very
first
match-3
title
to
disrupt
the
mobile

industry.”
Led

“We
are
thrilled
to
partner
with
our
new
investors
as
we
continue

drive
the

Cypher
Games
co-founder
and
CEO,
Anil
Simsek.
“We’re
focused
on
bringing
the
trends
that
players
are
asking
for.
Like
Disney,
we
aim
for
top-tier
quality,
but
we
go
beyond
that
by
incorporating
social,
interactive
entertainment
into
casual
mobile
games.
By
introducing
unique
character
attributes
and
offering
more
personalisation,
we
create
a
deeper
emotional
connection
with
players.”
