How Sega drafted Demiurge for the frontlines of the match-3 mobile war

Like many other publishers, Sega has been attempting to strengthen its presence in the mobile gaming market. As part of that plan, the house of the blue hedgehog wrapped its arms around longtime support developer, Demiurge Studios, and brought them into the Sega mobile fold.

The majority of Demiurge Studios’ experience comes from working on specific chunks of triple-A projects. The group’s first major splash as primary developer, other than Shoot Many Robots, was Marvel Puzzle Quest. Now, Sega wants to see the studio repeat some of that match-3 success with Puzzle & Glory for iOS and Android devices (which launched yesterday).
