Fettspielen was a website that hosts free Flash-based browser games and was founded in May 2008 by David An,[1] CEO of Rumble Media GmbH which is a startup company, and is part of Holtzbrink Ventures.[2][3][4] The company is located in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Games

[edit]

The hosted flash games are sorted in ten genres: Action, Adventure, Sports, Skills, Racing, Girls, Brain & Puzzle, Card & Board and Multiplayer. Several games also use an API to integrate the highscore-system of Fettspielen into their code.[citation needed]

Features

[edit]

The site is free, and creating an account is optional. High scores are recorded for registered users, and users are given profile badges for activity on the site, e.g. commenting a game or having a highscore, and are able to gain ranks.[5]

The site offers three new games per day and 83% of its audience is located in Germany.[6] Fettspielen also had a sister-site called GirlsandGames.de.
