Introduction

At Glu Mobile, we love to build free-to-play mobile games. Our titles include Covet Fashion, Design Home, Deer Hunter, MLB Tap Sports Baseball, and Disney Sorcerer's Arena, to name a few. One of our key differentiators is the ability to scale these games through a strong understanding our players.
