Casual Games France

[rockford]

Hi,

I'm David from Casual Games France (http://www.casualgames.fr) with about 8000 unique visits per month (and 1400 big fish games friends) since november 2006.

I'm looking for fun games to review, especially if a french version is available (like Virtual Villager, the first opus) and if there his an affiliate program with buy form in euros (most of my review are from big fish games).

And, I'm able to translate your games if you want to launch a french version.

I'm also working on a casual game, but it's not the point :-).

Congratulation for your work and your fun, it's a pleasure and a big source of motivation to read you every days.

Feel free to contact me with this form : http://www.casualgames.fr/?page_id=110.

Regards,
David

We have made french localisation of Master of Defense few weeks ago.
I hope soon it will be released by BFG team on french portals.

Cool. If you want a review, please let me know.

About BFG, there is no french portal yet... It's announced, but we don't know when.

Welcome on board David! With websites like yours, hopefully the french casual games market will get bigger and bigger. Maybe one day French will become a standard in games.

You'll get to take a sneak peek at our upcoming title, like promised. ;)

Salut,

Mes jeux sont en francais et en anglais.

Si tu veux tu peux les vendre en tant qu'affilie (avec Plimus).

Our own French channel hasn't been launched yet, but we successfully distribute internal and published games to French portals and aggregators (for instance Boonty and Oberon). Games like Atlantis, Mystery Case Files, Virtual Villagers and others have done really well in French.

David was an employee of my former business (before Funpause -- the business still exists). He's extremely sharp; I'm sure his initiative will do well.

Best regards,
Emmanuel

Great stuff! We will be contacting you in the future about French Translation.

[rockford]

Woaw ! Thank you for your encouragements !

We've got many games to review for next weeks ! I consider to create a special section on my web site for indies games available in french (with affiliation to buy them).

Also, some translations demands, great !

French casual games are very populars (but rare !) especially the "hidden clues" games (most of my BGF rewards I think), I receive many messages for the mystery cases files, agatha cristies, and other clues game : "when in french ?!!").

We also have daily emails from people asking for games in French. I believe that the french-speaking market for (casual) games is really growing. Hopefully the developers/portals/publishers will answer that demand.
BFG seems seems to be on to it as they announced localized content to be implemented soon to their PNP program.

We already work with other developers to release a french version of their games.

Big fan of MOD here. Glad to see it's going international, nice work.
