Dusk, a newly funded mobile multiplayer app from entrepreneurs Bjarke Felbo and Sanjay Guruprasad, aims to capitalize on the booming mobile multiplayer market. This platform allows users to quickly and easily play games and team up with friends. Felbo and Guruprasad’s previous success with Rune, a companion app for PUBG and Call of Duty Mobile boasting five million installs, suggests they possess the experience to make Dusk a success.

Dusk distinguishes itself as a game creation platform. Users play games specifically designed for and within the Dusk app, facilitating seamless communication and team-building with friends. Think of it as a streamlined social gaming hub with a library of custom-made titles.

The Key Challenge: Dusk’s success hinges on the appeal of its custom-made games. While some titles, such as mini-golf and 3D racing, show promise, they lack the brand recognition of established gaming giants.

However, Dusk offers a significant advantage: cross-play compatibility across browsers, iOS, and Android. In a landscape where platforms like Discord are integrating gaming features, Dusk’s simple, lightweight approach to connecting friends for quick games could prove highly appealing. Only time will tell if this strategy will pay off.
