Cellufun Brings Mobile Titles, Social Features To Facebook

New York City-based mobile games developer Cellufun has expanded its offerings and community of mobile gamers with a new Facebook application that allows users to play all of its titles and take advantages of their social features from within the social network.

Cellufun specializes in providing free-to-play, ad-supported mobile products, claiming over four million downloads to consumers in 160 countries. Its 40+ games include Call of the Pharoah, winner of the GSMA Award for best Mobile Game, and The Mobile Ring, a political boxing game attracting over 2.2 million mobile game plays in the last 160 days.

Cellufun's online and social features for its mobile games, including scoreboards, leader recognition, and multiplayer support, will be integrated into the Facebook application. Friends of Cellufun users can receive invitations to the applications, and game status notifications, such as game moves and wins, will be updated on users' Friends Feeds.

Said Cellufun COO and co-founder Steve Dacek: “The Cellufun community leverages social networking for its games, so Facebook offers a perfect platform for extending the community outward. We are incredibly excited about reaching a whole new audience via this platform.”
