History & milestones
In June 2011, Storm8 was one of the first free-to-play mobile game publishers to announce that they earned $1 million in a single day. The following year, technology news site TechCrunch referred to Storm8 as the "quiet mobile gaming giant" for successfully building one of the biggest mobile social gaming networks without raising any venture capital funding, and remaining relatively quiet with the press.

In December 2012, the company celebrated 2 million game downloads in one day.

Expansion moves
In 2014 the company appointed game industry veterans, adding Disney, EA and Zynga experience to its leadership team.

The company announced a deal with Hasbro Inc. in December 2014 to launch Monopoly Bingo! and Clue Bingo! on iOS and Android.
