Tangelo Games

What Tangelo Games does

Tangelo Games Corp. is a Barcelona-headquartered social mobile gaming company that develops and operates a portfolio of free-to-play and real-money skill-based games for consumers across 200+ countries. Its core product, MundiGames, is a multiplayer community platform with 40M+ registered users offering traditional board games, casino-themed titles (Bingo, Slots, Blackjack, Poker, Parcheesi, Dominoes, Chinchon, Belote, Buraco) with social features including avatar customization, chat rooms, leaderboards, and friend matching. The portfolio also includes Best Casino Slots (a Vegas-style slot app with multiplayer tournaments), Monster Tales (a Match-3 RPG hybrid), and Mundigames Cash (a real-money skill-based gaming app available in Mexico, Brazil, and Spain with bets starting at $0.60).

The company monetizes through three streams: virtual currency and in-app purchases in the freemium casino and casual games; real-money wagering on skill-based competition via Mundigames Cash (transaction-fee model); and historical white-label and licensing partnerships across Latin America and Southern Europe. Tangelo Games distributes through Google Play, Apple App Store, Huawei App Gallery, and a direct web platform. Underlying technology includes a cross-platform multiplayer gaming engine, a fair skill-based matchmaking system ensuring equal resources across players, and a Deep Learning Live Games PAAS platform under development for real-time analytics and automated game operations.

The company traces its origins to Akamon (Barcelona, 2011) and Diwip (Tel Aviv, 2010), both acquired by Canadian-listed Imperus in 2015 to form Tangelo Games Corp. Tangelo was subsequently privatized in 2018. It operates two wholly-owned subsidiaries (Tangelo Games Spain and Tangelo Games Israel) with a combined team of 80+ specialists, led by Managing Director Oscar Fonrodona, CFO Montse Puig, and Chief Data Officer Oriol Cort.
