About Social Quantum

Social Quantum is an independent developer and publisher of mobile and social games, founded in 2010. Its work spans city-building, farming, casual simulation and social multiplayer games, alongside a more recent expansion into action and survival titles. The company develops for iOS and Android and has also published games across social platforms and other digital storefronts.

Its best-known title, Megapolis, launched on mobile platforms in 2012. The city-building game became the company's flagship, combining urban development and simulation mechanics with an ongoing programme of content updates. Social Quantum subsequently released Wild West: New Frontier in 2017, extending its simulation portfolio into farming and frontier life. Its wider catalogue includes dragon-breeding, fantasy farming, prehistoric adventure and multiplayer card games.

Development and publishing

Social Quantum's capabilities cover full-cycle game development, publishing, visual asset production and continuing live operations. Its production work includes 2D and 3D concept art and animation, while its publishing activities encompass localization, player support, marketing and international content delivery. These functions support both the creation of new games and the continued operation of established titles.

The company's technical background includes proprietary C++ game engines. It has also adopted Unreal Engine 4 and 5 as it develops beyond its established casual and simulation catalogue. Lost Future, a zombie survival and action game soft-launched in 2023, illustrates this expansion into a different style of mobile production.

Social Quantum developed through a distributed production network, with engineering and creative teams across Eastern Europe and corporate and publishing functions serving international markets. Its history combines the development of new projects with sustained support for existing games, including continuing live operations for its flagship titles.
