Maliyo Releases First Ever Facebook App For African Themed Casual Games

Maliyo Games recently announced the launch of the first African Facebook games app open to all players. The journey started with web browser games, and having recognized Facebook as a converging point for all things social including gaming, it was only natural to take the Maliyo experience there.

All ten (10) game titles including: Okada Ride, Mosquito Smasher, My Village, Naija Hoops, Aboki and others are available for play. The Facebook experience not only comes with the games but has leveraged on the social feature of sharing and competition.

Aside playing the games, users can easily invite friends to play too, and the most fun part is that in addition to sharing scores on social platforms including Facebook and Twitter, the Global leader board allows players to enter scores which is made available to other players.

Simply visit apps.facebook.com/maliyogames to experience all of this.

The start-up was recently featured on CNN Marketplace Africa, 12th October 2012 – to be aired, and is also preparing for DEMO Africa, to be featured alongside 39 other Africa start ups at the inaugural DEMO Africa day in Nairobi taking place between the 24th & 26th of October, 2012.
