"In order to build and sustain a mobile gaming community, we need to provide a service that will cover the majority of devices and networks and also move ahead of the market to take part in connected games right from the start. SNAP Mobile sets the standard for multiplayer gaming and development technologies."

"With the added distribution channels through Nokia, we are building up a fun gaming community that offers an interactive, social element on top of the games themselves."
