Hoora Secures €1.1 Million to Revolutionize Mobile Gaming with Social Features

Launched in 2023 by founders Romain Mussault, Nicolas Marchal, and Flavien Marianacci, Hoora is an innovative mobile gaming platform that offers users instant access to hundreds of games without downloading. The platform incorporates a social media-inspired 'swipe' interface, facilitating game discovery through scrolling similar to TikTok. Targeted at users in France, Belgium, England, and Switzerland, Hoora's free platform encompasses diverse game genres supporting both solo and multiplayer modes.

Recently, Hoora secured €1.1 million in funding from investors such as Kima Ventures, Ubisoft-affiliated entrepreneur Mathias Salanon, and notable content creators including Unchained and Jojol. This injection of capital supports Hoora's vision to develop a social gaming experience emphasizing sharing and virality, aiming to transform the way players engage with mobile entertainment. Founder Romain Mussault described Hoora as the first platform to turn scrolling into game discovery, highlighting ambitions to become a leading mobile entertainment reference.

Hoora also plans to establish an open platform for game developers, introducing a revenue-sharing model inspired by Spotify to benefit creators and the platform alike. Given the mobile gaming market's valuation at approximately $90 billion, Hoora is strategically positioned to revolutionize the industry by blending gaming discovery with social media elements, enhancing user engagement and developer opportunities.
