Pocket Gems

edit

Pocket Gems develops free-to-play mobile games that are ridiculously fun. We were founded in 2009 by Daniel Terry and Harlan Crystal, engineers and gaming industry outsiders, who wanted to bring the excitement of social gaming to the mobile platform. There five titles to-date have been smash hits, each landing at the top of the App Store charts and entertaining millions of customers across the globe.

Apple Rewind 2011 named Pocket Gems’ Tap Zoo as the #1 top grossing app of 2011, and as well as their app Tap Pet Hotel as #4.

Pocket Gems is backed by Sequoia Capital.
