Homa Games raises $15 million to make hypercasual mobile games

France’s Homa Games has raised $15 million to enhance its factory for building hypercasual mobile games.

The seed round is a big one for Europe. The publisher and developer already has more than 30 apps and games in its portfolio. The category of hypercasual games — which are lightweight games that you can play in a minute — is a hot one. And Homa already has more than 250 million lifetime downloads since it was founded in 2018.
