It's safe to say that most regular human beings would be shocked and daunted at the idea of having to do a high quality game for iOS and Android, within a deadline of few months. I can honestly say that this work not the case with Juego Studios. They responded reactively, calmly and productively, and ended up delivering a game that both myself, the LatAm team, and users, were very happy with. There is a calm and experienced professionalism to the Juego team, and I would not hesitate to use them again.

We partnered with Juego Studios for the development of Munna Michael, a Bollywood based game & they did a terrific job. Our main concern was to develop a good game within specific timelines and they delivered a quality product. They also help us with theme/event-based updates on a regular basis.

The Juego Studios team was instrumental in developing one of our recent apps. We were able to supplement our small development team with several more developers that worked on front and backend features. They filled gaps wherever necessary and accelerated our time to market. After release, they continued to help us with new features and bug fixes. I would work again with them if needed.
