Google has acquired SocialDeck.
SocialDeck is a company that develops social-based mobile games. The company was founded in 2008 and has launched several titles for the iPhone, Facebook, and BlackBerry using its social gaming platform technology, which enables simultaneous game play across multiple mobile devices and social networks. SocialDeck raised its first financing round from the BlackBerry Partners Fund in March 2009. The company’s core team splits its time between Toronto and San Francisco.
The announcement on the SocualDeck website reads:
SocialDeck is joining Google!
Big news! We’re super excited to announce that someone found our social games as fun as you have — in this case, that “someone” is Google. SocialDeck has been acquired and we’ve joined the Google team.
We started this company with the goal of connecting friends through social games on all kinds of exciting mobile devices. We’ve been amazed and humbled by all the stories and experiences our customers (you!) have shared with us.
Thank you for all your support and for being part of SocialDeck’s success so far.
Happy Shaking!
– The SocialDeck Team
Location: USA, San Francisco, CA & Mountain View, CA
