Kung Fu Factory has won a bunch of awards for titles such as Adventure Time: Card Wars, TMNT: Rooftop Run, and SpongeBob Moves In. It specializes in making mobile games based on popular brands. Under the deal, the two companies will deliver a series of titles using “the world’s biggest entertainment intellectual properties.” Developers and publishers team up all the time to make games, but multi-year deals are relatively rare.
