Games has released several entertainment apps and mobile games in different
platforms and along with Gigigo Group has accounted more than 35 million
apps/games downloads worldwide.
ChallengeYubi Games contacted ComboApp prior to initial release of their freemium
structured game "Angry Boo" for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch. The game
itself was submitted into the historically competitive Arcade and Action game categories on theApp Store. The client sought to drive Angry Boo to be effectively noticed by potential users

as many gold coins as he can by strategically jumping from one spider web to the next, while
avoiding ornery bats and other obstacles along the way. With gameplay that challenges users to
calculate height and distance with each jump, and small landing spaces that don't leave much to
chance, this exciting game represents an engagingly refreshing new spin on the mobile
platforming genre.

After reviewing our signature services, the client opted to put together a marketing campaign on
behalf of Angry Boo which consisted of the following ComboApp Mobile Marketing Solutions:
