GameZBoost White Lavel Casual Games and Tournaments Platform

GameZBoost positions itself for the hyper-competitive gaming era with the new platform

GameZBoost blends eSports and casual gaming in a competitive gaming solution that appeals to a broad global audience

The traditional eSports competition market – while generating a lot of hype, TV coverage and millions of dollars in prize money and other revenue – has been more or less limited to a specific young, male-dominated demographic.

By contrast, casual and hyper-casual games are played at home by everyone from teens to pensioners – and are now poised to become the next big thing in competitive gaming. It only takes a quick look at the numbers to reveal the sheer extent of the potential of this competitive gaming universe:

  • Traditional eSports saw audiences grow from 335 million to 557 million between 2017 and 2021. This includes both viewers and players. Revenue growth has been impressive too, with the industry generating $865-million in 2018, increasing to $1.1-billion the following year. It is projected to reach $1.8-billion in 2022.

  • Casual gaming had already reached more than 2.4 billion gamers by 2020, projected to 2.7 billion in 2021. The revenue projection is an eye-opening $180-billion, with the hyper-casual market alone worth more than $2-billion.

Who are these gamers?

Casual gamers represent a much larger cross-section of society than traditional eSports players. More than half of them are over 34 years of age, with roughly an equal number of male and female players. They’re the Candy Crush players, the Sudoku lovers, the Angry Birds fans.

Their most favoured game segments are:

  • Puzzle mobile games (56.5%)
  • Arcade mobile games (55.08%)
  • Action mobile games (34.19%)
  • Racing mobile games (30.83%)


GameZBoost – solutions for the hyper-competitive gaming age

The core focus of the GameZBoost solution is to provide a competitive gaming community that appeals to a much broader demographic than the traditional eSports market.

It’s an eSports For All solution, focusing on casual and hyper-casual games.

Democratising competitive gaming

The current competitive gaming landscape is quite fragmented and siloed, with various gaming platforms and game studios vying to build their own separate communities. From the players’ perspective, this means that they’ll often have to join more than one gaming platform to play all the games they want.

GameZBoost is different. It aggregates all types of casual games into one platform where everyone can compete in competitions on any games they wish. It’s a completely agnostic platform – any casual gamer can play, regardless of their device, browser or operating system.

GameZBoost is a single global gaming community for everyone.

Content is king – engagement is the kingdom

The GameZBoost platform’s primary focus in providing a universal competitive gaming ecosystem for casual gamers is to create engagement.

By providing highly sought-after gaming content the platform promotes ever-increasing engagement with and between players. This growing community leads to better retention, increased acquisitions and, consequently, improved ROI.

Leaderboard integrity – the key to the kingdom

The entire legitimacy and trustworthiness of a competitive gaming platform depends on leaderboards showing true, real-world results without being vulnerable to manipulation. If players don’t believe that they’re able to compete of a fair playing field, engagement levels will plummet.

This makes leaderboard integrity our most important focus, and we use a variety of security and anti-intrusion methods to safeguard our players.

A transactional competition gaming environment

GameZBoost provides a transactional environment for players to accumulate real prizes for competition play. Players are able to build up value in the “wallets” through competing, and have 3 ways in which they can gain access to the various active tournaments:

  • Coins – players can buy coin bundles with a credit card and use these to enter tournaments. Their winnings are in coins, and they can then convert these into vouchers.
  • Access Days – players can use their winnings to buy Access Days and have access to all tournaments for that period
  • Tournament Passes – players can buy tournament passes and have access to a corresponding amount of tournaments, valid for the duration of each tournament.

Users are in control of their Coins wallet and decide at what level and for which voucher they wish to redeem their Coins for. The platform features vouchers from leading retailers, across the globe and in various currencies. In countries and states that skill gaming is legal in the user is able to redeem their Coins for Cash, this may require a partner to have a gaming license.

Huge competitive casual gaming opportunities for providers

GameZBoost opens up an exciting range of real opportunities for online operators and providers to take advantage of this new era of competitive gaming.

 The explosion of casual and hyper-casual competitive gaming creates rich opportunities in industries within and beyond the core traditional gaming market.
