Vancouver, BC, March 23, 2023--(T-Net)--East Side Games Group announced today that their studio, East Side Games (ESG) as well as one of their recent releases, Star Trek: Lower Decks - The Badgey Directive, have both been shortlisted for Mobile Game Awards.

ESG has been shortlisted in the Best Developer category of Pocket Gamer's Mobile Game Awards.

The company's 'Star Trek: Lower Decks - The Badgey Directive' mobile game, developed in partnership with Paramount Consumer Products and Mighty Kingdom, released worldwide in September of 2022, is also shortlisted in the Best Storytelling category of the awards.

In addition to these nominations, ESGG also reported the recent successful launches of Milk Farm Tycoon (February 2023, co-developed with NoPowerup) and Doctor Who: Lost In Time (March 2023, developed in partnership with BBC Studios and Bigfoot).

As Star Trek: Lower Decks - The Badgey Directive and Doctor Who: Lost In Time are both connected with major IPs, ESGG said in a release that it is pleased to see the fan bases have embraced the opportunities to engage with their favourite franchises in the mobile game format. Milk Farm Tycoon continues to impress as an increasing number of mobile gamers discover this farming simulator.

These new games follow the successful release of The Office: Somehow We Manage, developed in collaboration with Universal Games and Digital Platforms and inspired by NBC's critically acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning U.S. version of The Office, which is now streaming exclusively on Peacock.

ESGG says it is confident relationships with Creative Artists Agency and other partners will lead to strong additions to the mobile game market as well as the company's portfolio.
