Digital Chocolate will bring several game titles especially designed for being played on Nokia N-Gage handsets. The mobile game developer has already signed to publish several game titles for this device.

Digital Chocolate is one of the leading developers for mobile phone entertainment solutions. It has managed to bring until now several successful titles for handset owners. "Digital Chocolate has been a driving force in promoting social interaction within the context of mobile gaming", considers Gregg Sauter, Nokia's director of third party publishing.

Combining Digital Chocolate's experience in developing successful game concepts with the high performances that Nokia N-Gage series mobile phones have to bring can only result in greatly efficient results. This is exactly what the two companies are relying on and the main reason for the closed agreement.

DChoc Cafe is Digital Chocolate's newest game series and brings a variety of challenging games to the N-Gage platform. This game concept makes it possible for users to play the casual car, board and puzzle games that they would find at their local cafe and choose to play with friends and family. The concept also allows players to customize their characters, earn prizes and make recommendations to other players.

"N-Gage provides the tools we need to tap into the powerful device performance and promote social interaction between players through games, which is completely in line with Digital Chocolate's philosophy. We're very pleased to be teaming up with Nokia", aid Gary Schofield, president of networks, Digital Chocolate. For this reason, "DChoc Caf? is a perfect complement to the Nokia's next generation N-Gage platform".

Digital Chocolate has managed to earn over the years more than 20 games awarded with the title of "Game of the year" and over 50 Editor's Awards. It currently holds secured relationships with more than 200 carriers.
