Kakao Games said on the 25th that it officially launched the new title "SMiniz," based on SM Entertainment's intellectual property (IP), in the global market.
SMiniz is a mobile casual game featuring small characters (Miniz) that resemble artists under SM. Users solve match-3 puzzles together with their "bias" characters. It supports five languages: Korean, English, Japanese, and traditional and simplified Chinese.
Kakao Games said that in the global CBT (closed beta test) for SMiniz held in Dec. last year, it emphasized "the fun of an accessible puzzle game." In the CBT, SMiniz featured photocard collection that reflects fandom culture; "Photo Deco" and "My Room," which users can customize to their tastes; and costumes that capture artist activity concepts—characteristics that bring SM artists and fandom culture into the game.
