GameMine offers subscription games tied to direct carrier billing

Apple’s App Store and Android’s Google Play pretty much crushed the old system where carriers sold games direct to mobile users. But GameMine has found a way to bring the carriers back into the picture using a game subscription service that can be billed directly to carriers.

Los Angeles-based GameMine is announcing today it has distribution partnerships with five international mobile carriers in Spain, Italy, and Egypt. GameMine has collected more than 400 games in its subscription service, and it is making them available on iOS or Android devices from the major carriers. All of the games are fully unlocked and ad-free, with the subscription billed directly to the subscriber’s mobile character.
