TaleMonster

BARBAROS MAH. BEGONYA SK. NIDAKULE, Istanbul, Turkey

Overview

TaleMonster Games was founded by former Peak Games veterans to push the boundaries of casual mobile gaming. Its debut title, Match Valley, blends classic puzzle play with hero and tower-defence elements, delivering higher user engagement and longer average playtimes than typical genre peers. The team believes modern casual players demand greater depth, and it aims to satisfy this by producing broadly appealing games with distinctive mechanics. Early traction for Match Valley has validated the approach, with investors highlighting strong monetisation and retention metrics. Financially, the company has now raised a total of $37 million, comprising a $7 million seed round closed eight months ago and the new $30 million Series A. The fresh capital will fund continued development of Match Valley and the expansion of TaleMonster’s game portfolio, supporting its mission to surprise and challenge players.
