Youda Games is a Dutch video-game studio and publisher focused on creating casual time management and strategy games. The company has been developing games since 2002,[1] but has remained largely dormant since 2016.
Youda Games primarily released their games on PC, Mac and Mobile devices, whilst also providing Flash-based online games and demos through their own online game portal and Facebook. Third-party games were also hosted on their website for users to play, similarly to other casual gaming companies at the time like Miniclip or Big Fish Games.
In 2023, Azerion announced an agreement to sell their ownership of the Youda Games portfolio to Playtika for $89.4 million to $165 million, which was completed in the following weeks.[2][3] As of 2024, the company still maintains the Governor of Poker games originally developed by Youda.
