High Fidelity Prototype

Background of the Game
The mobile games market is growing
rapidly, with revenues exceeding many
analysts' expectations. Two software
companies don't want to lose out and
decide to spin off small business units
to penetrate this rising market.
But your CEO is not patient…
As members of the UX design teams
for these two spin-offs, your goal is to
make as much money as possible by
delivering the best possible mobile
game apps for your target audience.
