Company Now Has Six “Best-In-Class” Card Games on Mobile
New York, NY – May 4, 2017 – Tapinator, Inc. (OTC: TAPM), a developer and publisher of mobile games on the iOS, Google Play, and Amazon platforms, is pleased to announce the launch of three new social casino and card game properties within the leading mobile app stores:
Solitaire Dash on iOS, Google Play, and Amazon
Deuces Wild Classic on iOS, Google Play, and Amazon
Double Double Bonus Poker Classic on iOS, Google Play and Amazon
Solitaire Dash is the Company’s first solitaire property. Unlike traditional mobile solitaire offerings from competitors such as Microsoft (MSFT) and Zynga (ZNGA), Solitaire Dash is a new spin on a classic game with an engaging horse racing theme, over 200 exciting levels, and unique power-ups & bonuses. Designed as a live operations product, future content updates will introduce new levels, thereby delivering ongoing engagement and monetization opportunities.
Deuces Wild Classic is a spinoff from Tapinator’s flagship Video Poker Classic product which features thirty-nine authentic game variants and is the most diverse video poker product on mobile. Video Poker Classic has reached the top 150 grossing charts in the Casino category across iPhone, iPad, Google Play and Amazon. Tapinator has recently launched Deuces Wild Classic to target the significant number of players that focus on this particular video poker variant.
Similarly, Double Double Bonus Poker Classic is a second spinoff from Tapinator’s flagship Video Poker Classic and targets players of Double Double Bonus, another of the Company’s leading video poker variants. Both spinoffs are designed to increase cross-promotion opportunities among the Company’s growing social casino player base.
“We have made tremendous progress on our social casino initiatives and now have six ‘best-in-class’ card game products within the leading mobile app stores” said Tapinator CEO, Ilya Nikolayev. “We are seeing strong engagement, retention, and monetization from these products. We are also proud of our 4.5 out of 5.0 star average review score across all six games. Our new Solitaire and Video Poker titles, all launched in 2017, join our pre-existing Video Poker and Blackjack games to comprise what is now a portfolio of six classic and re-imagined casino & card games. These games cater to players around the world seeking the thrill of Las Vegas, but at a fraction of the cost, and from the comfort of their mobile devices.
We look forward to continuing to add content, features and new games to our social casino and card games portfolio. Last month’s announcement of the $825 million sale of the DoubleDown Interactive studio by International Game Technology (IGT) to South Korea’s DoubleU Games demonstrates the massive opportunity for value creation in this still very young social casino industry,” said Mr. Nikolayev.
In addition to providing this social casino business update, the Company would also like to alert current and prospective investors that Tapinator and its CEO, Ilya Nikolayev, were recently featured prominently in profiles conducted by both Forbes and Huffington Post.

Forward Looking Statements
To the extent that statements contained in this press release are not descriptions of historical facts regarding Tapinator, they are forward-looking statements reflecting the current beliefs and expectations of management made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “believe,” "may," "will" "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," and similar expressions (as well as other words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements in this release involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could cause the development and monetization of our mobile games, future results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, the uncertainties inherent in the hits nature of the mobile gaming business. Tapinator undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements. The quoting and trading of the company's common stock on the OTC Market Group's OTC Link quotation system is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices, due to many factors that may have little to do with the company's operations or business prospects. As a result, there may be volatility in the market price of the shares of the company's common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Market Group's OTC Link quotation system is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on it is often more sporadic than trading of securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock market or another securities exchange. Accordingly, stockholders may have difficulty reselling any of their shares. For a further description of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, as well as risks relating to the business of the company, see Tapinator's Risk Factors which are available within the disclaimers section of Tapinator.com.
