# Origins

After **20+ years** in the casual games market and hundreds of games shipped, veteran game developer Yohami Zerpa incorporated Gamebop GmbH and recruited an A+ team with the mission of creating instant games to distribute on the existing social platforms (Facebook, Snapchat).

After becoming the #1 games provider for **Snapchat** with over 20 games developed for the platform, plus a handful of high quality games created for **Facebook** in collaboration with **Playco**, **Voodoo**, **Kongregate** and others; it became evident that the future of social gaming required a switch in paradigm:&#x20;

A social network / messenger built around the human desire to play games with others, with **every feature tuned to facilitate this interaction**, and hosting a healthy amount of quality games.
