Zelgor Games careers
Zelgor is an interactive entertainment company launching a unique media franchise, called the Noobs. An army of outlandish aliens exploring the Universe, the Noobs look to follow the path of Angry Birds, a billion-dollar IP, by disrupting the $150B Global Games Industry. As the Noobs rise in popularity, they plan to invade the world of shows, movies, merchandise, and beyond.
Backed by famous venture capitalist Tim Draper, co-creator of Guitar Hero, Kai Huang, and the founders of napster, the Zelgor team brings real-world experience building successful games like The Sims, Bioshock Infinite, and Dungeons & Dragons Online, and more.
Zelgor is using the world of mobile games as a launchpad for our first media franchise, the Noobs. Rovio used this strategy to turn the Angry Birds franchise into 4.5 billion game downloads across 12 games, 1.8 billion consumer products sold, and a $500M box office movie franchise. In a similar fashion, we’ve positioned the Noobs to leverage success on mobile by expanding into merchandise, shows, movies, and more.
We combine the unique feel of the Noobs with mobile games that are designed to instantly engage users yet also providing long-term goals and social experiences. By introducing them to the world through mobile games, we’re putting the Noobs on the fastest path to becoming a multi-billion dollar media franchise. As they rise in popularity, Zelgor will be uniquely positioned to rapidly grow our business by launching the Noobs into other forms of entertainment while also creating new original media franchises with similar potential.
