King.com CEO Riccardo Zacconi’s talk at this year’s Casual Connect revolved primarily around how best to create a compelling multi-platform experience. And he wasn’t just preaching the importance of ports, either. In his eyes, if you want additional control over how long people play your game and how much they spend, you’d better weave in some kind of social features or cross-platform play.

Although they’ve been there since the launch of the games service for Google+, Wooga will be removing their games from the platform come July 1st. It should come as no surprise that a lack of users is the catalyst for the removal, a problem the social network has struggled with since day one.

Wooga's hit Facebook puzzler Diamond Dash has finally made its way to the App Store. Originally slated for a summer mobile release, the iOS version of the match-3 game is now available for free to players in 120 different countries.

Earlier this year wooga, the developer behind social games like Bubble Island and Magic Land, announced that it had become the fourth biggest game developer on Facebook. Currently wooga boasts more than 30 million monthly active users between all of its games. Not only that, but the developer was one of the launch partners with Google+ games and has plans to bring Diamond Dash to mobile phones, expanding its reach even further. Gamezebo spoke with wooga CEO Jens Begemann about the company's quick rise and where it hopes to move in the future.

After becoming one of the largest game developers on Facebook thanks to hits like Bubble Island and Monster World, Wooga has now set its sites on the mobile space. And it all starts with Diamond Dash, which is due to hit both the iPhone and iPad later this summer.

It wasn't that long ago that Wooga announced that it had become the largest Facebook developer in Europe, and now the company is looking to grow even larger, thanks to a $24 million investment from Highland Capital Partners.

Social game developer Wooga has announced that it has topped the 20 million monthly active user level, which not only makes it Europe's biggest social game developer, but also the fourth largest on Facebook worldwide.

Bejeweled Blitz set a trend for arcade puzzlers on Facebook, giving players one-minute bursts of match-3 gameplay that proved to be massively popular. Now Wooga, already with several solid puzzle games to its name, is attempting to emulate that formula with Diamond Dash. It’s a solid and enjoyable effort, though it’s definitely lacking when it comes to options.

Developer Wooga certainly knows how to make a great puzzle game on Facebook, as anyone who has spent time with the incredibly addictive and charming Bubble Island can attest to. And today Wooga has launched its latest game on Facebook, the macth-3 puzzler Diamond Dash.
