Found Media Games is about changing the way that players play games to make them longer-lasting. People have raised several questions about our approach to the business of games.

• Q. How did the idea behind Found Media Games start?
• A. Found Media Games is made up of games industry veterans who have watched the business of games evolve from the hobbyist niche in the 1980s and 90s to the free to play ad-driven market we have today. We believe that the solution to an industry that rewards copycat ideas and massive development costs is to return to the roots where gaming began. By keeping the development and maintenance costs rock bottom we will deliver unique experiences that can last as long as people care to play them.
• Q. How do “serverless” online games even work?
• A. We are copying a simple idea that people used to play games before the Internet connected us all: play by mail. Each player has an exact copy of the game in their hand and they take turns sending their moves to each other. Everyone with a phone has access to text messages and a bunch of other communication channels. We are simply replacing the server with those channels.
• Q. But what about “X” kind of game?
• A. Not every game format will work with our idea and not every format has to. Our games are designed to be enjoyed whether you have three hours or thirty seconds. Mobile-first means the ability to pick a game up on your commute or settle down at night for a long session after work.
• Q. But I don’t want to play those kinds of games.
• A. That’s great! At the end of the day games are entertainment and there are hundreds of incredible options available from AAA studios down to indies.
