Founded in 2020, Ace Games creates casual and mid-core mobile games and has already released hits like Serial Burglar, Prison Life!, Mix and Drink, and Fiona’s Farm, all of which have ranked highly in U.S. app stores. The studio is currently focused on scaling two new projects: Cluedo Chase, a board-game experience built around the classic CLUE universe, and Mystery Trail, a story-driven puzzle game. Ace Games raised a $7 million seed round in 2021 at a $25 million valuation and, in 2022, Playtika acquired a minority stake for $25 million. The company’s strategy centers on leveraging strong intellectual property and narrative elements to capture a global casual-gaming audience. While specific revenue or user numbers were not disclosed, its prior titles’ top-chart performance in the U.S. indicates meaningful traction. The new capital will be used to accelerate production and marketing of its upcoming titles and to deepen Turkey’s game-development know-how.

Edge provides a platform and proprietary technology that lets users clip exciting gameplay moments and turn them into standalone game units called Playables that others can immediately launch and play. Playables are created via a lightweight, game engine-agnostic Edge SDK that publishers and developers can add to their games with no impact on performance. Shared Playables let viewers press a 'start playable' button to jump into the captured moment and replay or alter outcomes on their own systems. Edge plans to further build fundamentals to support a variety of game partnerships, add new features and services, and offer plug-and-play adoption for game companies while growing its user base and creators’ economy. Early performance metrics show strong engagement, with average daily usage time of over 60 minutes and multiple individual play times per Playable. As of the Series A close, Edge reported total funding of $42M, was founded in 2021, is headquartered in Tel Aviv with locations in Los Angeles and New York, and has over 35 employees.
