Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, MumboJumbo LLC is an award winning indie developer of games for personal computers, game consoles and mobile devices. The company was originally established in January 2001 to develop games for major publishers, and in 2003 became one of the first few pioneering independent developers to popularize the new wave of casual games by partnering with the emerging portal sites to make games available for download directly to Windows and Mac computers. Today, the company is winning the hearts and minds of desktop, living room and mobile gamers worldwide with its innovative, fun, entertaining and high quality games.
MumboJumbo Mobile, LLC is a publisher of entertainment software for Android and iOS devices.
MumboJumbo was previously a United Developers Company that acquired other development companies such as Zono, Ritual Entertainment[1] and Hot Lava Studios.[2]
On June 11, 2008, MumboJumbo entered an agreement with Valve Software to release software on Steam.[3]
On January 25, 2010, a jury in the 193rd Civil District Court in Dallas County, Texas awarded MumboJumbo $4,600,000 in damages resulting from a breach of contract on the part of their former business partner PopCap Games. MumboJumbo had previously held a North American retail distribution agreement with the casual games developer. According to MumboJumbo, the relationship was violated when PopCap Games began to develop its own strategies for selling at retail, thereby cutting MumboJumbo out of the loop. During the 12-day trial, MumboJumbo's law firm Rose-Walker showed that PopCap's actions "severely damaged" their business relationship with Wal-Mart.[4]
