据inside social games的消息，Happy Island成为首批登录android手机平台的社交游戏。

CrowdStar之前曾宣布他们将推出android版游戏。Happy Island并不是只有android版本，同时也推出了iphone版。但是据称Happy Island是真正意义上由facebook平台延伸到iphone平台的首批社交游戏。

Happy Island在android和iphone版本的游戏并不是由CrowdStar操作完成的，而是由该公司董事长Peter Relan控制的另外一家公司Sibblingz设计制作。

到目前为止，大量的facebook游戏开发商都还在观望手机游戏市场是不是能够支撑他们的免费商业模式，目前来讲手机游戏还是以一次性买断居多。

CrowdStar’s previously announced push into Android is finally happening, with a port of its Facebook game Happy Island going live on Android sometime over the next day.

Happy Island is one of the first Facebook games we’ve seen move to Android, although this isn’t the game’s debut on a mobile device; there’s also an iPhone version available.

Both mobile versions were created by another venture incubated by CrowdStar chairman Peter Relan, called Sibblingz. Over time, Sibblingz intends to create a business out of making games work across multiple platforms.

For now, though, most Facebook developers are still waiting for proof that the mobile markets are big enough to work with their freemium model, while most mobile games remain on a paid model in Apple’s app store. Happy Island’s performance may offer a useful test-case for Sibblingz to show off — if it’s successful, which certainly hasn’t been the case for all social games ports to date.（source：inside social games）
