Mobile multiplayer gaming on the rise - qeep celebrates 3 million users with its new game "FlipChip"

Online, December 17, 2009 (Newswire.com) - Cologne, December 17, 2009 - Mobile multiplayer gaming continues to gain popularity. This is proven by the rising number of users on many gaming platforms - among them the mobile entertainment network, qeep. The java application operates on all current mobile phones and includes an extensive multiplayer gaming section, along with entertaining social networking functions.

Today qeep releases FlipChip, the newest multiplayer title. In this strategic board game, each token has a white and a black side. The goal of the match is for each player to try to turn their opponent's tokens over to his or her own color by surrounding them with his or her own tokens. The player with the most tokens wins the game. With Flip Chip, qeep is deepening its focus on multiplayer gaming. "We are happy to release FlipChip, another captivating strategy game. We think that with this one we can add to the success of our existing line-up and offer an even broader choice of entertaining and challenging games to our users," says Christian Schulte, co-founder and managing director of BLUE LION mobile GmbH.

The trend towards mobile multiplayer gaming can also be seen through the rapidly growing number of users on qeep. While the entertainment platform first recorded 2 million users at the end of June, today qeep has broken through 3 million users. More than anything this emphasizes the strong growth of mobile multiplayer gaming. In contrast to the past, when people played against a computer, users these days look for a more exciting challenge where they can prove their skills against real opponents - conveniently on their mobile phone.
