Play over groups from Skype, Whatsapp, Tango or any other instant messaging platform or social network you use.
There is no limit to the games you can play, as every new and existing game can be easily integrated with PlayHub!
Choose your own nicknames and images and create in-app personalized groups over which you and your friends can play.
Wouldn't it be nice to play an android game of blokus with your gym pals, or a game of monopoly with your carpooling buddies, or maybe just a simple game of chess with one of your friends?
We all have our social cirles clumped into different social network and IM groups, each one with its own inner atmosphere and history. You can talk and share photos and videos, but one thing that is truly lacking is the ability to play games. PlayHub tries to fill this void by introducing the ability to play any game you like over the existing platforms you use and enjoy.
Games in PlayHub are played over PlayHub groups. A PlayHub group is meant to mirror a group from your chosen app. In order to do so, you are given a link to share to the original group. Anyone who presses the link is automatically joined to the PlayHub group.
Once a group exists, you can play any supported games you wish with the people in it. When creating a new game, PlayHub shows you all the installed games which support PlayHub, and can also direct you to more such game in Google Play.
After you created a game, you can start it at any time you like. The players order dependents on the game played, but every player is notified when it is their turn to play.
Based on the great viral potential and ease of use PlayHub will greatly increase exposure to games that integrate with it. Users that don’t yet have the game installed and accept an invitation link will receive a friendly notification allowing them to directly download and play the game with their friends.
On the engineering side one of our main goals was to provide a highly streamlined solution that would allow developers to hook their games with PlayHub quickly and easily.
PlayHub provides all of the essential services such as security, user account management, push notifications and all the necessary scaleable server backend and infrastructure. All that developers need to do is pass along some of their game state along with additional information such as the currently active players and notifications about a win or loss and PlayHub will take care of the rest.
Our end goal business model will provide a 25% profit sharing from the ad revenue generated by PlayHub in relation to your game.
Since PlayHub is still young and growing as a token of gratitude and appreciation for early adopters we offer an even greater perpetual 50% profit sharing for those who decide to join PlayHub at this point.
Our team at PlayHub is always there to answer any questions and provide all the necessary support to make integration with PlayHub as quick and as smooth as possible.
