i-Jet Media published its own new game Pirates of the Caribbean in the larger German social networks.

Pirates of the Caribbean is built in the classic Mafia genre. Players acquire gold and ships, and fight with other players during naval battles. The game works successfully in many other networks, both in Russia and abroad. For instance, audience of Pirates of the Caribbean in the largest Brazilian social network Orkut has already exceeded 1 million users, and is still growing.

StudiVZ, MeinVZ, and SchuelerVZ are the more attended social networks in Germany (people from 14 to 39 years old). Basically, audience of StudiVZ, MeinVZ and SchuelerVZ consists of German, Austrian and Swiss students and graduates. Their aggregate monthly audience ecceeds 17 million users, and their websites also work in foreign languages such as French, Italian, Polish, Spanish, and English.

The launch of Russian games in such significant local European social networks is a great step forward in development of both countries. Thus, Russian developers get an opportunity to introduce their products to European users and become successful on this new market; European social networks can fill the market with game applications.

"In spite of maturity of the European Internet and the developed casual games industry, only a very few social networks provide their users with services of application and games. Even if such services exist, selection of applications is very limited. Cooperation with Russian game developers enables European social nteworks to settle this problem: our developers are closer to European mentality than many others, say Chinese ones. Besides, Russian developers are competent and capable of making high-quality products. For our part we offer assistance in developing API for networks which are ready to cooperate, and thus we enlarge their competetive advantages," comments Alexey Kostarev, General Producer, i-Jet Media.
