Following it’s successful launch on mobile, German publisher HandyGames and PC game developer BlueFish are taking The Great Bible Game to a new platform; The PC.
This PC version is the direct result of a licensing deal where HandyGames licensed the brand and contents to the PC developer. The PC game premieres on the website of Bild.de, one of Germany’s biggest news websites. Bild has signed up for a 3 week exclusivity on the title, which means the portal will push it at least over the total Easter period.
“Usually top casual PC-titles get converted for mobile devices. This time we went the other way round and developed a downloadable PC-version for a successful mobile game," commented Cyrus Kargar, Managing Director at Bluefish Media GmbH the new co-operation. "We are happy to cooperate here with such a strong partner like HandyGames and are sure that more PC-versions of HandyGames Bestsellers will follow.”
"We are proud of working with Bluefish Media and BILD.de. It is a great opportunity to be on the spot with our developments also at the computer games market," says HandyGames CEO Markus Kassulke about the start of The Great Bible Game on PC.
