Cozy to launch slots and bingo on Facebook
Developer is already in discussions with operators to license virtual currency product, which will go live in January next year.
Indian mobile games developer Cozy Games has developed a B2B slots and bingo app for Facebook, which will be launched at ICE in January.
The product is thought to be one of the first B2B Facebook gambling offerings to be developed, with social gaming companies Product Madness, MatchMoveGames and PlayPhone Social among the first licensees. Cozy are also in discussions with a number of other social gaming and egaming operators to license the product after its launch.
Cozy co-founder and managing director Sreeram Reddy Vanga (pictured) explained that the product is different to current social games on the platform, as it creates a more complete social experience:
“The game itself will be social in nature as opposed to the simple community chat and standard social features more commonly available. The game mechanics are designed to encourage increased collaboration between players.”
Vanga also revealed that Cozy is in the process of developing social games for their mobile platform, aiming to create “a convergence of online, social and mobile.”
The solution will be virtual currency only after its initial launch, but after eGR revealed that Facebook is looking into the launch of real-money gambling, Vanga admits that the game will “definitely” evolve into a cash game should this come to fruition.
