Games on Facebook Study-ASSIST Software Romania

Love Plus, one of the leading players on the condom market, announced the launch of a Facebook application game "Love Factory" produced entirely in Romania, which will be available globally.

"For the Love Plus, this project means innovation. This is not a project to promote aggressive sales campaign or for a limited period, but an innovative way of interaction with the public and reaffirmation of Love Plus brand personality," said during a press conference Lia Vasilescu, Brand Manager, Love Plus.

The application was made following a market study which showed that the existing games on Facebook, Farmville is the most popular among both women and men, however, if we analyze the preferences in the categories of gaming, women are the fans of the type of Farmville / Cityville, and those simple, like bubble/cubes, while men prefer sports games and poker.

The main reason for those who choose to play on Facebook is that games are a fun way to spend time, and this holds true regardless of gender, age and city size. Moreover, if men are attracted to competition with your friends or other players (61.1%), always trying to get the best score, women seek interaction with friends and a desire to not fall behind.

The main source of information about the game for all players is the recommendations/friend invitations. In addition, women are more influenced by Facebook ads (55.8%), while men prefer to find out for themselves or on other sites.

The "Love Factory" game was developed over a year of Love Plus team, along with Black Sea Social Game Designer - Digital Cookies and local development company Assist Software. With this project, the company aims to attract players from all over the world, not only in Romania.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is ASSIST Software's development process?  

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?  

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?  

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.   

  • A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)   
  • Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.    
  • Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).   
  • Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions. 

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.
