We will be launching games which we believe players in the UK and Europe will see as innovative and exciting. Our first game, Lucent Heart, is readying itself for launch this summer and the ‘sneak peek’ beta test is just our first step. beanfun! across the world has become a friendly and social community, people playing games together and sharing ideas – we think players in the UK and Europe will really enjoy the time they spend on the portal – starting with Lucent Heart!”
