Addicting Games has acquired Mope.io, a web and mobile survival game with more than 72 million players to date.

The move is part of a revival for Addicting Games, which has followed a winding road but is back as a maker of simple casual games you can play on the web or on mobile devices when you want to zone out or learn something new. It may sound too simple in this age of big-budget games, but Addicting Games draws more than 10 million players a month.
