Zattikka, a major new player in the online and mobile gaming market, has announced BadHed, a brand new gaming portal specifically targeted at gamers with attitude. Zattikka’s presence in the industry was firmly established with the acquisition of the popular portal Gimme5Games – hosting an extensive variety of well known titles such as Butt Scan, Balloon Headed Boy and the Phantom Mansion series. Now the company has its sights set to expand into the more dedicated hardcore gaming market with its new “Blood ‘n’ Gore” portal, BadHed.
British social games outfit Zattikka has floated on the London Stock Exchange this morning.
The firm, founded by former Virgin games execs Tim Chaney (president) and Mark Opzoomer (CEO), has a target market cap of £22m on its first day of trading, with shares opening at £1 each.
