Throughout the past couple of years, we’ve worked to bring technology to your finger tips with a variety of iOS apps carefully crafted by our developers and designers. Here’s a look at what we’ve done:
Who Dat – Remember the Milton Bradley game Guess Who? We brought it into the 21st Century with social-mobile app Who Dat? Instead of guessing characters form a board of cardboard cartoon characters, you can play the guessing game with your friends or our cast of characters. The app uses Facebook’s API to connect you to friends in order to play the game. The game also allows users to purchase different boards, including a celebrity board, in order to enhance their guessing experience.

Map of the Dead – This turn-based zombie game allows your to fight zombies in local businesses. Think of it as an augmented reality role playing game. By using MapBox and FourSquare, the developers at Doejo created Map of the Dead, which allows your character to enter local coffee shop, school, clinic, whatever, to possibly run into a number of zombies based on FourSquare check-ins. Since its launch in April 2012, we’ve gained more than 12,000 likes on Facebook and have been featured in Wired Magazine, Mashable, Gawker and Venture Beat, among others.
