Playrix, or Playrix Entertainment, is one of the world's top mobile games and PC/Mac games developers,[1] employing more than 800[2] people across several offices. The company has released four mobile free-to-play games: Township, Fishdom, Gardenscapes, and Homescapes. All of its projects have consistently been among the Top 50 Grossing Apps for iOS and Google Play since their release.[3]

In 2016, Facebook named Gardenscapes its game of the year. [5]

In August 2017 Playrix became the highest grossing mobile game developer in Europe,[6] and as of September of the same year, it became the 9th highest on Android[7] and the 10th highest on iOS[8] worldwide.
