I just came across a new casual game provider that called Kickplay. Like Pictogame, it offers its users a variety of games that can be customized according to one’s preference and taste. Users are allowed to upload their own pictures, images into the games, and share with the public with the option of embedding the games to the blogs or social networking sites. Currently, they allowed an user to quick post the game to iGoogle, Blogger, Piczo, Xanga, Netvibes or to be shared on Facebook. Kickplay, initially focuses on gaming, seems to look for sources of revenue that based on Google AdSense by offering a wide range of games that we familiar with, such as Solitaire, Match 3 and etc. Though the feature of using other shared images and sounds available on the site and replace the default with those into the games is very interesting, but I found that it isn’t possible to edit, or delete any game that I have created at this moment.

Kickplay is officially launched in Alpha today. However, their patent approval of system and method for the games they created is still pending at the time of my writing.
