About Skyrocket Studios

Skyrocket Studios was an internal mobile and casual game development studio within Big Fish Games, based in Seattle. Its work focused on free-to-play entertainment, combining casual game mechanics with mobile puzzle design and card game adaptations for iOS and Android.

The studio's supported credits include Fairway Solitaire, Fairway Solitaire Blast, Fairway Solitaire HD and Let's Dish. These projects place its development work within Big Fish Games' first-party mobile portfolio, particularly casual card and puzzle games.

Its capabilities included mobile game development, prototyping, UI/UX design and live game operations. Rather than operating as an independent advertising agency or a licensed online casino developer, Skyrocket functioned within Big Fish Games' internal development organisation.

The studio brand was used during the 2010s. Following changes in Big Fish Games' ownership and subsequent corporate reorganisations, development was consolidated under Big Fish Games and Pixel United, and the separate Skyrocket Studios branding was retired. Its historical identity and game credits remain distinct from other businesses using similar names.
