(AUSTIN, Texas) – Fantasy Kingdoms, the flagship game of Sneaky Games (www.sneakygames.com), has attracted more than 350,000 users since it was introduced late spring, making it one of the fastest growing social games.

Fantasy Kingdoms is a game in which participants create and build their own fantasy kingdom, collect mystical creatures, grow magical gardens and share enchanting experiences with their friends. It has become intensely popular on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=213518941553), where the game is played.

While it is familiar to gamers that prefer its gameplay style, it stands out from the crowd in a number of other important ways:

Visually, it is stunning and has arguably the best visuals of any game on Facebook. “Fantasy Kingdoms has really nailed down a beautiful visual style,” writes a reviewer for Inside Social Games at http://www.insidesocialgames.com/2010/05/25/fantasy-kingd.... “From poison apple trees to Elven looking walls and buildings, the game is a vibrant display of color and mythical décor.”

New content and gameplay are consistently added to the game to keep its fans intrigued and entertained. “The recent addition of an early, affordable Castle set really helped the player community get started building the Fantasy Kingdom of their dreams,” said CCO and co-founder of Sneaky Games, Billy Cain. “And deeper gameplay is being built and tested for release right now,” he added mysteriously.

The team listens to its players through its stellar community and customer support, taking their comments and feedback seriously. “The Customer Service is what really sets this game apart from all others out there,” wrote one user on their review page on Facebook. “These guys are amazing.”

David Godwin, CEO and co-founder of Sneaky Games, said he has been humbled by the acceptance of the game in the marketplace. “We are in a very competitive space,” said Godwin. “So for Fantasy Kingdom to be embraced by so many users suggests that we had the right formula in place when we created the game.”

Godwin added that his seasoned executive team is prepared to apply the same formula of ease of use, visual stimulation and strong community support to future games. Two other factors that are expected to fuel the growth of the company are the recent round of funding that Sneaky Games took in and Austin’s business environment.

“One would be hard-pressed to find a more sophisticated base of potential employees than Austin,” said Godwin. “We have our pick of technologists with expertise in both the gaming industry and the social networking space.”
