Peak Games
Turkey's First Tech Unicorn and Global Mobile Puzzle Juggernaut
Peak Games is a premier Turkish mobile video game developer founded in Istanbul in October 2010 by Sidar Şahin. Renowned for international puzzle blockbusters Toy Blast and Toon Blast, Peak was acquired by Zynga in June 2020 for $1.8 billion, standing as the historic first 'Unicorn' technology company in Turkish history.
From Regional Social Games to Global App Store Domination
Beginning with regional digital board games, Peak pivoted exclusively to global casual puzzle titles. Engineering proprietary data analytics and polished tactile collapse mechanics in Toy Blast and Toon Blast, Peak maintained sustained Top 10 Grossing positions across the United States and Japanese Apple App Stores.
The $1.8 Billion Acquisition and Ecosystem Spinoffs
In June 2020, Zynga acquired Peak Games for $1.8 billion. The landmark transaction catalyzed the Turkish venture capital landscape: former Peak alumni went on to found Dream Games (Royal Match) and Spyke Games, transforming Istanbul into a global epicenter of mobile gaming engineering.
