Blue Lava Wireless acquired by JAMDAT
Gamesindustry.biz informed that JAMDAT has bought Blue Lava Wireless. They have paid a hefty price of 137 million USD in cash and in stock. In the core of the deal lies a 15 year Tetris license.
To my opinion this is a great move from JAMDAT. They have been very successful in producing simple mobile games for different platforms. Their most successful titles have been based on physical games like Yahtzee. This is a good example of the taste of mobile crowd. However, as JAVA applications have become more and more popular, JAMDAT has to meet the growing demand for more complex games. Tetris will fill just that spot, but still follow their basic product slate of serving mobile masses.
