Loom Games arrives at No. 3 on PocketGamer.biz’s list of Top 30 Türkiye Game Makers 2026

Loom Games landed at No. 3 on PocketGamer.biz's list of Top 30 Türkiye Game Makers 2026, a ranking based on industry trends, investment in the region and global success.

Earlier this year, Scopely acquired a majority stake in Loom Games.

Here is what PocketGamer.biz had to say about Loom Games:

Istanbul-based Loom Games made headlines this February when Scopely announced it was acquiring a majority stake in the company in a performance-based deal structure that valued the studio in excess of $1 billion.

With a team size of approximately 20 people, Loom Games wasted no time developing and launching Pixel Flow!, generating millions of downloads and landing a 10-figure deal all within a year of founding. The acquisition came shortly after the developer picked up a seven-figure investment from Arcadia Gaming Partners’s Akin Babayigit and early stage fund e2vc. The speed of its rise has rarely been seen in the industry’s history.

Hybridcasual hits are proving to be something of a speciality from Türkiye and there’s no clearer success story than this one. Pixel Flow! promises fast thinking, brain training and endless fun, delivering with its gameplay mechanics built around colourful pigs and pixel cubes. Tap, flow, repeat until all the cubes are removed.

Before Pixel Flow!, the Loom Games founders previously co-founded Crescive Games and made Rollic-published title Twisted Tangle. So while Loom Games’ success was rapid, the team had acquired the experience of working together on successful projects.

When it comes to new ownership by Scopely, CEO Kübra Gündoğan assured this acquisition wasn’t about exiting early, but setting up Pixel Flow! for long-term growth and impact. It’s a new chapter, started early into Loom Games’ story – one that began in Istanbul.


The news come alongside Pixel Flow!'s recent one-year anniversary of its debut on the App Store and Google Play, as well as a cover story on Kübra Gündoğan in Fast Company Türkiye.
