Big Run Studios cfounder and CEO Andrew Bell said in a statement that launching a successful game today is extremely competitive and requires a lot of capital, large teams, and massive brands. But he said the studio sets itself apart by creating player experiences for diverse casual gaming-playing audiences.
“Andrew’s mission – to create casual games for non-traditional gaming audiences – resonated with us immediately,” said Sam Englebardt, head of Galaxy Interactive, in a statement. “Big Run’s rapid growth as a studio reflects what’s possible when a founder and operator as talented as Andrew moves aggressively to put a great plan into action. We’re confident that Big Run will follow up on the early success of Blackout Blitz with several more cutting-edge games and make a significant mark on the mobile gaming industry.”
