What does SOCO Games do?

SOCO Games develops social media games on the Facebook platform.

How are they different?

Over and above creating top-tier games and creating a loyal player base, we also have integrated a social conscience into how our games are built and into how we conduct business. Within each game there is a automated mechanism that automatically extracts a percentage of revenue and puts it into the SOCO Games Players Fund. The Fund Supports over 30 organizations around the world.

Why could SOCO Games be BIG?

Simply the size of the market, 500 million people and growing is enough to indicate the potential for large growth. Games have grown from zero to millions in annual revenue in a matter of months. Initial reviews and reaction from players indicate that Earth 2.0 is very competitive in this space.

How they plan to make money:

The business model is simple. Players can inhance there game experience and strengthen their character with game credits. They can earn credits by completing tasks in the game or they can speed this process up by buying game credits with real world money or through completing “offers” such as filling out a survey or watching a video.

Our thoughts:

No thoughts at the moment. Very interesting!
