 Playman Sports(TM) series. Trivial Pursuit(TM) Mobile Edition was the company's first licensed title, and according to Ruskola, the decision to develop a branded game was considered carefully:

"The mobile games sector has seen hundreds-if not thousands-of licensed games released in the past 18 months, and not all of them have offered a good gaming experience and value for money. Trivial Pursuit(TM) has universal appeal that goes far beyond the videogames sector. It's simple, accessible, and it works extremely well on even the most limited mobile phone handsets. We're pleased to bring the game to a new audience, and naturally, we're excited about its sales performance to date all across Europe," says Ruskola.

Availability is also a key factor. Mr.Goodliving supports over 120 different mobile phone handsets and more than 20 languages to ensure that the game can be played and enjoyed by the widest possible audience. The game is available from all leading mobile network operators and portals, print publications and retail channels throughout Europe.

"There are hundreds of millions of phone owners who are all potential players," Ruskola concludes. "If they can't play your game on their handset or in their own language, then they're not going to play your game. This applies especially to a global, multi-local brand like Trivial Pursuit(TM)."

Mr.Goodliving is planning to release a number of special editions of Trivial Pursuit(TM) Mobile Edition. The first one, Trivial Pursuit(TM) Football Edition, was released in January 2005, and can be found on all major mobile carriers.
