Thank you for reaching out to Big Fish Games. My name is Neal and I?m an
Associate Developer Relations Manager here on the team. ****

****

To give you some background, Big Fish Games is the largest developer,
publisher, and distributor of downloadable and online casual games. Our
audience is almost entirely female (75%) between the ages of 30-80. As
such, the most popular genres on our site are Hidden Object, Puzzle
Adventure, Time Management, Casual Sims, and Match 3. Although we do have
break out games that are variations of these genres from time to time,
these games must go beyond all player expectations and create an engaging
experience that players simply cannot tear themselves away from. ****

****

I was able to review your game and unfortunately I?m not sure the content
will resonate with our audience. It?s clear you have a well developed game,
however the theme of your release just isn?t in line with the established
audience we?re looking to reach with our games. However, if you work on any
projects in the future that you feel would make more sense with our
players, please be sure to let me know and we can certainly discuss
partnering possibilities. ****

Best Regards,****

Hello,****

****

I am one of the developers of a web-based game we are looking to publish on
Big fish Games. The game we developed is
https://cardstories.org/<http://cardstories.org/>. It's a multiplayer
card game, focused on creativity and imagination,
inspired by board games like Dixit or Apples to Apples. The player picks a
word, a set of cards, and has the other players guess which card matches
his word.****

****

Let me know what extra information you need, about the game or our studio
Farsides, and I'll compile it for you. Looking forward to discuss with you!*

Cheers, ****

Nope - on the other side given how restrictive they are on the genres
they accept, that might just be as well... Hurray for diversity ;p And
then people wonder why we don't get any new good game to play those
last few years!
