How It Works 1: The Game Stream

(PER LA VERSIONE ITALIANO, CLICCA QUI)

We designed Playyoo with a couple of basic concepts in mind, to make mobile games more fun and more accessible. The Game Stream is designed to address the “accessible part”.

The Game Stream is a list of games which Playyoo thinks will interest you, and will work on your phone. Games which will not work on your phone will never appear in your Game Stream.

You can see the Game Stream both on the web, and on your phone. On the web, it is the strip running across the top of each page:

On your phone, each page shows 1 game, ordered in the Game Stream order:

As you play games, they are removed from your Game Stream. The basic idea here is that you’ll probably enjoy the game, but you’ll want to move on to the next one. Playyoo is about casual games, having fun, not deep core gaming (not that we’ve got any problem with that!)

Recently Played Games

Of course, you might actually want to play the game again. No problem - all you need to do is click “Only Show Your Recently Played Games” (web) or “See Recently Played” (mobile), and there it is.

Favourite Games

And if you really, really like the game, and want to keep it bookmarked, close to hand for the next time ? Easy - just click on add to favorites, and you’re done. You can find it just by clicking on “Only Show Your Favourites” (web) or “See Only Favourites” (mobile).

Bookmarking games

You can also use your favourites to mark games you discover while browsing the web site, and would like to play on your phone. You can simply use the flyout menu on the game icon to add it to your favourites - or remove it if you change your mind.
