PlayFirst, the publisher of Diner Dash (one of the most popular casual games across various platforms) has its coffers filled with fresh investments. It has raised $16.5 million in a funding round headed by DCM.
This is a shot in the arm for PlayFirst, as the fresh round of investment has taken the company’s total venture capital to $26.2 million. The company is going to divert these funds towards web and game development.
It seems that the heavens above are smiling on the publisher, as it has also inked a major deal with online content publisher RockYou to go along with the grace of the venture capitalists. The deal will see its game Wedding Dash made available on social networking website Facebook.
The publisher has recently released games like Chocolatier, Dream Chronicles and Wedding Dash. But Diner Dash remains the most successful of PlayFirst’s games across PC, Mac, handheld and mobile platforms with over 200 million downloads hitherto. With the new funding, it can only get better.
