游戏邦获悉，该公司在线休闲游戏市场中已经占有相当的比重，它的网站为玩家提供了一个比赛系统，可以让他们与朋友或陌生人进行互动，通过获胜得到游戏积分。

King.com在Facebook上的应用有助于该网站进一步扩大用户规模，目前已支持用户通过Facebook体验26款King.com游戏。

King.com首席执行官Riccardo Zacconi表示，“King.com已经成长为最大的游戏网站之一，我们始终坚持开发市场中最优秀的原创品牌游戏。在King.com排名前十的游戏中有八款是内部研发的产品，它们占据了这十款游戏的用户体验次数的85%。”

据游戏邦了解，King.com不久还将向手机和平板电脑等平台进军。

Zacconi表示，“我们有信心在Facebook上复制原来的成功模式，更好地通过社交游戏进行创收。事实证明，我们玩家喜欢在游戏中与他人互相竞争，同时也愿意为游戏中的微交易或虚拟货币花钱。我们希望把这一点与我们专有的竞赛模式相结合，让玩家可以随时随地享受游戏乐趣。”（本文为游戏邦/gamerboom.com编译，转载请注明来源：游戏邦）

Casual giant King.com lands on Facebook

Gaming tournament firm launches social network app ahead of roll-out onto mobile and multi-platform

The London HQ’d firm already has an enviable, if under-the-radar, share of the online casual games market. Its site offers a tournament system that lets players compete against friends and strangers and collect credits for winning.

The Facebook King.com app will only grow its audience further. 26 of its games are playable through the social network.

“King.com has grown to one of the largest games sites. A main driver for our success is our own studio, which develops consistent, record breaking original games that top the best branded games on the market. On King.com, eight of the top ten games have been built in-house, accounting for 85 percent of the top ten total gameplays,” said Riccardo Zacconi, CEO, King.com.

“We are now taking these game assets plus our industry-leading tournament model to Facebook for everyone to enjoy.”

Plus, said Zacconi, King.com will soon be expanding to over web platforms such as mobile and tablet.

“We are confident that replicating this successful model on Facebook will open the flood gates for a proven way to monetize social games.

“We have proven that gamers enjoy playing for micro transactions or virtual currency, while competing with each other, and want to build on this with our proprietary tournament engine, enabling users to enjoy great games wherever and whenever they like,” said Zacconi.（source：develop-online）
