MAG Interactive celebrates its tenth year by launching special events in six of its games where players can compete to become the MAG player of the decade.
Stockholm, Sweden - November 9, 2020 - 2020 MAG Interactive celebrates its tenth year as a company and launches special events in six of its games: New QuizDuel, Wordzee, Word Domination, Ruzzle, WordBrain and WordBrain 2.
MAG also announces a unique competition: Players participating in at least five of these exclusive ten-year events compete to be crowned the MAG “Player of the Decade”. In addition to this honorary title, the winner will be awarded exclusive MAG swag as well as in-app currency in participating games. The events and the competition runs from today until the 23rd of November.
“In ten years, MAG has gone from a few people around a desk to a company with three studios in two countries and millions of active players every month. During these ten years, we have reached more than a quarter of a billion downloads of our games. At the same time, the industry has grown considerably, and the step from paid games to free-to-play has opened up for billions of people around the world to play games together.
“The past year we’ve launched two of our most important games so far - Wordzee and New QuizDuel - while also acquiring the live quiz app Primetime. With great coworkers and a strong game portfolio, we feel very excited and hopeful when looking forward to another decade of development for MAG”, says Daniel Hasselberg, CEO of MAG Interactive.
