See how this startup allows you to create a web game in just 5 minutes

It’s the Wordpress for video games.

The world spends 3 billion hours a week as a planet playing videogames. For others it may be pure leisure, but for some luckier ones, this means big business. Gametize, a gamification technology and consulting company, makes use of game psychology to help brands and organizations engage their target audience, such as in marketing, learning, and training.

In an exclusive interview with the Singapore Business Review, founder Keith Ng claims that Gametize’s proprietary technology, Gametize Platform, is the simplest gamification platform to engage and motivate behaviors with fun challenges such as quizzes, photo, QR code challenges.

Like a Wordpress for mobile and web games, Gametize allows users to earn rewards, compete, and socialize through a mobile/web experience that can be white-labeled and published in just 5 minutes.

“Gametize Platform is licensed to major brands and enterprises such as DBS, Standard Chartered Bank, SingTel, and Singapore Press Holdings, and has won awards from IBM and Shell,” Ng shared.

Asked what makes the platform unique, Ng said by integrating game psychology into their solutions, Gametize increases audience engagement, backed by proven case studies.

Our platform can also be used by anyone, even with no technical experience, to create games in just 5 minutes. Users can earn rewards, compete, and socialize through a mobile/web experience,”While Gametize has achieved more than what its peers had amidst tighter competition for funds and market share, it isn’t resting on its laurels just yet.

“We plan to launch a series of Gametize powered apps in different verticals, such as personal development, language learning, coaching, and eventually our own learning games app store,” concluded Ng.
