Peak Games has acquired the Saudi company Kammelna Games and its popular online card game Baloot. They’re looking to expand in the Turkey and Middle East North Africa (MENA) region, which is expected to have 400 million players by 2015.
“We have added Kammelna to the Peak Games family because of their profound understanding of MENA players and their focus on creating culturally relevant, multiplayer social games — where Peak already has an expertise with millions of users,” said Sidar Sahin, chief executive officer and founder of Peak Games.
In Saudi Arabia, more than two-thirds of Internet users play games online and the country has one of the highest average revenue per user (ARPU) in social gaming worldwide.
