How Card Games are Keeping Up | DAVID-MARSHALL, COLLINS, WINKLER, ARAKI, VAN DREUNEN
Forecasted to total $2.6 billion in 2012, a growing part of the overall card game market's revenues are earned on mobile, in browsers, and on consoles. Monthly spending of over $50 a month on collectible card games are almost absurd compared to other social and digital game genres. We will learn more about this old skool category's brave new adventures in digital, and explore questions including "What's the secret sauce?" and "How well do collectible card game mechanics translate to a digital environment?" Leading designers will shed some light on how they are formulating a digital strategy for iOS, browser, Facebook and consoles.
Delivered at Casual Connect Seattle, July 2012.
