About Famobi
Famobi is an independent game developer and publisher based in Cologne, Germany, specializing in cross-platform HTML5 games. Established in 2014, the studio develops browser-based casual entertainment and helps businesses distribute games across mobile devices, computers, connected televisions and embedded entertainment systems. Its games emphasize lightweight performance, responsive presentation and text-free design, allowing players to access them without plugins or native app downloads.
The company combines original game development with commercial licensing and global catalog distribution. Its library contains more than 500 HTML5 games, spanning bubble shooters, sports games, puzzles, card games and other casual formats. The catalog supports both consumer gaming platforms and business deployments, including telecommunications portals, digital signage and transportation entertainment. Subscription and lifetime licensing options provide different ways for commercial partners to integrate tested, ad-free games.
Development and publishing
Alongside its own catalog, Famobi adapts mobile games for browser distribution. This work includes converting app-based titles into lightweight HTML5 versions for platforms such as YouTube Playables, Microsoft Bing Games and Google GameSnacks. The studio also develops web and connected-TV adaptations with external game owners, extending established mobile properties to additional screens and distribution channels.
For brands and advertisers, Famobi offers custom games, reskins and interactive playable advertisements. Its advertising capabilities include MRAID-compliant experiences for web and app environments. These services sit alongside consulting on monetization, technical integration and game distribution, giving partners support beyond the creation of an individual title.
Games across connected screens
Famobi's distribution work extends to automotive infotainment, airline and rail entertainment, and Smart TVs. Its collaboration with LG brings casual games to webOS televisions, while its broader embedded gaming work serves partners seeking entertainment within existing devices and services. Across these applications, the studio focuses on adapting casual gameplay to the technical requirements and interaction methods of the destination platform.
