If youâre not already on board with PopCap Gamesâ brand of casual thrills, youâve never played Peggle. But you will bow before PopCap, as the publisher is expanding its casual efforts in a big way.
Forbes writes of PopCapâs plans for 2009, some aspects of which weâre already aware of. Itâs bringing Peggle to the Nintendo DS and Xbox Live Arcade this year, as well as dropping more guaranteed cash cows like Bejeweled Twist on portables.
But its nefarious plans donât stop there.
It also plans to ship Plants vs. Zombies, described by the publisherâs VP as a real-time strategy game with notes of âtower defense games and collectible card gamesâbut in a casual context.â Sounds like heroin.
Also en route are more time wasters, like Bejeweled Blitz for Facebook, the ultimate in shirking.
Considering PopCap is one of the few publishers thriving so expertly right now, weâd think they have a pretty healthy year of domination ahead of them.
