Nexon invests in Brian Reynolds’ SecretNewCo game startup
The latest investment from one of the biggest players in online games in Asia brings together two of gaming’s pioneers to work on mobile strategy games.
[...]
Nexon also acquired the publishing rights on a worldwide basis for SecretNewCo’s flagship game, which will be a “mobile strategic social network game.” In that game, codenamed SecretNewGame, players begin as a leader of a tribe in the Stone Age and guide their civilization through all the ages of human history. Players can form alliances, trade with friends, launch raids on enemies, and defend against attacks from other players.
Does it sound like Civilization or Age of Empires on mobile? Yes, indeed. SecretNewGame should debut in 2014.
