Launch of the latest “Boonie Bears: Ridge Xiong Feng Bears of Snow (熊出没之雪岭熊风)
After the successful launch and reception of our first two boonie bears casual game series “Boonie Bears: Forest Defense” and “Boonie Bears: Homeland Defense”, the Forgame-developed car racing mobile game “Boonie Bears: Ridge Xiong Feng Bears of Snow” (exclusively licensed by the movie of the same name) was synchronously launched with the movie at the end of January. The release of the movie has received an overwhelming response and achieved box office success. Popular artist Gary Chaw (one of the lead protagonist in the widely successful Chinese TV show “Where are we going, dad?”) sang the theme song for the movie together with his children. They also attended the film’s premiere press conference and experienced a trial play of the game, which sparked an electric atmosphere.

OBTAINED EXCLUSIVE ADAPTATION RIGHTS IN RELATION TO MOBILE GAMING FOR CLASSIC ONLINE NOVEL “GHOST BLOWS OUT THE LIGHT” (鬼吹灯)
In January 2015, Forgame obtained the exclusive adaptation rights in relation to mobile gaming for the classic Chinese online novel “Ghost blows out the light”. The online novel series (written by Tian Xia Ba Chang) relates to the treasure hunting adventure of several grave robbers, including Hu Bayi, Pangzi and Shirley Yang from one of the top four grave robbing sects. Compared to other online literatures, the series created a brand new genre of tomb robbing fictions. Created based on the Chinese traditional culture such as I Ching, the storyline was full of mystery and innovation. The series was ranked as the top online novel and bestselling book since it was launched. The game will be developed by Ling Long studio from Guangzhou Feiyin (a member of the Forgame group), and is currently expected to be launched in the second half of 2015.
