ANGUILLA, B.W.I., August 12, 2015 / Shoal Games Ltd. (TSXV:SGW) (OTCQB:SGLDF) (http://www.shoalgames.com) announced today that its innovative free-to-play social bingo game, Trophy Bingo (http://www.trophybingo.com) is available worldwide on Android tablets and phones. The Company expects the Apple iOS release of Trophy Bingo to follow within the current month. The unique construction of Trophy Bingo creates an entirely new bingo game experience that appeals to players seeking a game that’s fun, easy-to-learn, and packed with new puzzle challenges.

Free-to-play social bingo games are grouped within the social casino segment of mobile games and are one of the highest monetizing segments of all social games. According to Eilers Research, the social casino segment alone is expected to generate revenues of 3.5 billion USD in 2015, up from 2.0 billion USD in 2013, or 38% growth. Eilers Research notes that mobile products now account for 61% of all social casino revenue. Despite this impressive growth, Eilers Research believes that social casino on mobile remains underpenetrated as it accounts for less than 10% of total mobile game revenues versus ~45% of Facebook game revenues. Trophy Bingo aims to join the highly successful social bingo games Bingo Blitz (acquired by Caesars Interactive) and Bingo Bash (acquired by the Game Show Network) in the Top 100 Grossing chart on Android, a level at which companies can make in excess of $1,000,000 in revenue per day.
