Magmic Celebrates 10 Years in Mobile Gaming; Releases Wave Crasher

OTTAWA, ON -- Magmic Inc., a pioneer in mobile entertainment over the past 10 years, has developed and published hundreds of mobile products on multiple devices including BlackBerry, iOS, Android, Symbian, and Java. In the highly competitive mobile gaming industry, Magmic excels by pursuing a strategy of publishing both licensed,  brand name mobile entertainment products and developing original premium content; distributing titles across multiple platforms. We continue to keep pace with increased user demand by growing staff, adding to our portfolio of entertainment products, and expanding our reach on new platforms.

Magmic was founded in Ottawa, Canada in 2002 as the mobile industry was in its infancy. It wasn’t long before Magmic became the leading provider of premier entertainment content for BlackBerry. Since then, we have expanded our portfolio and brand across multiple platforms with over 2.2 million unique mobile users worldwide playing at least one Magmic game every month. 2011 was another banner year and we are ramping up to release some amazing new titles in 2012, including Blackjack King on BlackBerry, Ka-Glom on BB10, Wave Crasher on iOS, and a yet to be titled game on iOS in collaboration with ground-breaking graphic artist eepmon.

Magmic, along with Fuel Entertainment and Playbrains, is also gearing up to host the first ever Ottawa Game Summit, a professional development event taking place in May 2012. This is a collaborative effort with numerous game developers in the region, as well as Algonquin College, OCRI, EDC and the support of OMDC.

"This is a very exciting time for Magmic," said John Criswick, founder and chief executive officer, Magmic Inc. "We have accomplished a lot in last 10 years and I only see more success in the future. We will continue to market our top brands and expand our catalogue with new titles on iOS, BlackBerry, Android and even Facebook soon."

There have been many highlights throughout Magmic’s 10 year history. Our more recent successes in 2011 include:

•    Phase 10 for iOS reached the #2 Card Game in the U.S. App Store, along with #1 Overall App in Germany’s App Store and currently has user base of over 400,000.
