Casual gaming is no longer niche. This “emerging market” is still growing and evolving at a very fast pace - casual games have now successfully crossed over on to new platforms like handheld and online, plus new markets such as social gaming. Add to that the mass popularity of motion controlled and peripheral driven games and the future of casual game development holds huge potential. The Casual Games Forum will help you explore the opportunities that developing casual games can offer.

TACKLE: Join industry experts and star developers addressing key issues, hot topics and challenges with a view to providing potential solutions and new ideas.
