“This game was a natural brand extension for us and a great way to introduce our film and characters online,” said Bob Osher. “It’s the best possible scenario when those opportunities are created internally between divisions like Sony Pictures Animation and Sony Pictures Interactive.”

In the Hotel Transylvania Social Game, players are tasked with building, decorating, managing and maintaining their own Hotel Transylvania, where a host of fun monsters, inspired by the upcoming animated film Hotel Transylvania, come to get away from the stresses of the human-inhabited world.  Grow zombies in your hotel graveyard to create hotel staff, and keep guests happy with a host of torturous amenities.  Players can check back daily to collect rewards, share gifts with friends and entertain their hotel guests.

“Social games are a key entertainment activity for millions of people online,” said Emmanuelle Borde. “Sony Pictures Interactive has always focused on building digital experiences that drive community and conversation.  The move into social games was a logical evolution for our business.”

The Hotel Transylvania Social Game was designed and developed entirely in-house by Sony Pictures Interactive.  “Our goal was to build a game that is fun to play while taking advantage of the full range of social tie-ins that experienced gamers expect from social games,” said Scott Nourse, senior vice president of production, Sony Pictures Interactive.  “We are proud of our achievement in that regard and are excited about the framework we have built which will enable us to build more games in the future.”
