Browser gaming is back in the strategy conversation, and Poki is making the case that the web is not just a dusty old tab full of Flash memories. PocketGamer.biz’s interview with Poki COO Stein Janssen looks at why browser gaming is becoming a core platform again, especially as discovery, direct access and lower friction matter more for developers. This connects directly to mobile because many players now move fluidly between phone browsers, tablets, PCs and app stores.
The web can work as a funnel, a platform and a monetisation layer if developers treat it seriously. In other words, the browser may be old, but it is not retired.
