Digital Chocolate Sweeter Than The Rest

After securing its fourth major company award this year, mobile game developer Digital Chocolate is savoring an unprecedented level of success as the leading developer of original, high quality, innovative games. The 2006 Best Games Developer award - the most recent of the company's high-profile wins - was presented to Digital Chocolate last month at the Mobile Entertainment Awards, which recognize outstanding achievement in mobile content across a number of categories. Category winners were decided by a voting panel of over 300 mobile company executives including leading operators, OEMs, publishers and developers.

"Digital Chocolate is the kind of partner we appreciate because they understand how to exceed consumer expectations with each game they release," said Tiziano Tonti of 3 Italy, a leading 3G carrier. "As the popularity of mobile gaming grows, operators and publishers have begun to understand the critical importance of delivering high quality game experiences to consumers each time. Mobile gamers simply want games that impress and entertain, and if they do not feel that they got their money's worth, they will be less likely to buy mobile games in the future, or recommend that their friends do so."

"We are happy to lead the charge when it comes to delivering first rate mobile game experiences, satisfying mobile gamers like no other game maker," said Trip Hawkins, Digital Chocolate CEO. "We are grateful that our approach has resulted in the critical acclaim at both the company and product level. More importantly, as we see our products more frequently entering Top Seller lists on Tier 1 operators' decks, we know that our approach not only delivers unprecedented quality to the consumer, but also to operators that make our games available to the public.
