MacFun.com launches

MacFun.com is a new casual game site devoted entirely to Mac users. "The site was created to provide a community where Mac gamers worldwide can find high-quality, highly entertaining, and highly addictive games for their Macs, all in one place," according to the company. Offering an impressive range of family-friendly puzzle, strategy, word, arcade, and card games, MacFun.com offers downloadable fun for every taste, with an eye toward emerging Mac games. The company said it is focused solely on the "needs and interests of Mac users of every age and skill level," and will offer "quick, clever and affordable entertainment." Dozens of the best casual Mac games are available today on MacFun.com: while the company plans to continue to add more as well as offer community-building features. In addition, MacFun is providing Mac development services for third-party and original casual games, a unique Mac-specific DRM solution for license, and distribution opportunities for independent developers.

"Our goal is to build MacFun into a great resource for the entire Mac community," says Amy Torres, editor-in-chief of MacFun. "Most other sites treat Mac users as an afterthought, if they consider them at all. But finally there is a place where they can trust that every game works on the Mac, where Safari is the browser of choice, and where the support staff--editor, webmaster, and everyone else--are all Mac users themselves."
