Delivered at Casual Connect USA, July 2014

Pricing mobile games is a delicate balancing act. Gone are the days of long development cycles as developers must tighten budgets with narrowing game launch windows. Whether you are making a free-to-play or paid title, mobile game launch plans have similar components and must include pricing analysis to be successful. But what if your research suggests your game should be a paid title? Or what if your ad budget isn’t big enough to make a dent on the “Free” charts. Matt Shea, Head of WildTangent, will discuss strategies for ROI in game marketing and share why pricing a game at $.99 is likely not the way to go. ​
