About playsimple

PlaySimple Games is an Indian mobile-game studio headquartered in Bengaluru, Karnataka. Founded in 2014 by Siddhanth Jain, Suraj Nalin, Preeti Reddy, and Apurva Lakhia, the company specialises in word, trivia, and casual-puzzle games for iOS and Android platforms, and it has shipped titles that have been downloaded hundreds of millions of times across global markets. The company's portfolio includes word and trivia games such as Word Trip, Word Jam, Daily Themed Crossword, Word Wars, and Trivia Star, alongside other casual-puzzle and word-puzzle titles. PlaySimple's games are typically free-to-play, monetised through advertising and in-app purchases, and operated as live services with seasonal events, daily-puzzle cadences, and global leaderboards. The company invests in data-driven user-acquisition, live-operations, and in-house engines and content tooling to support its catalogue. In 2021 PlaySimple was acquired by Modern Times Group MTG AB, the Stockholm-listed Swedish gaming and entertainment group, and it now operates as part of MTG's gaming portfolio while retaining its India-based studio and leadership. The acquisition was widely reported as one of the larger exits in the Indian gaming-startup ecosystem at that time. Indian fresher and early-career hiring at PlaySimple typically targets game-developer, software-engineer, mobile-engineer, backend-engineer, data-analyst, data-engineer, product-manager, game-designer, art-and-animation, user-acquisition, and quality-engineering roles, with positions sourced through PlaySimple's careers portal and game-industry hiring channels.
