PopCap Games, Inc. is an American video game developer based in Seattle, and a subsidiary of Electronic Arts.^[3] The company was founded in 2000 by John Vechey, Brian Fiete and Jason Kapalka.

Originally founded under the name 'Sexy Action Cool', their first title was a strip poker game that served as a revenue stream for future titles.^[4] PopCap has developed several games for computers, consoles and mobile devices, with their most popular games being Bejeweled and Plants vs. Zombies games. PopCap was sold to Electronic Arts in 2011, to which the company had shifted to mobile and free-to-play games.^[5]

History[edit]

PopCap Games was founded by John Vechey, Brian Fiete and Jason Kapalka in 2000. They originally incorporated as 'Sexy Action Cool', a phrase taken from a poster of Desperado.^[4] Their first title was a strip poker game called 'Foxy Poker' and was supposed to serve as a revenue stream for their future titles.^[4]

Their first game as PopCap was Bejeweled, a gem-swapping game, which was supported on all major platforms and awarded by Computer Gaming World Hall Of Fame in 2002. The company expanded in 2005 with the acquisition of Sprout Games, a Seattle-based casual games developer company like PopCap Games, founded by James Gwertzman. Sprout Games is the creator of the game Feeding Frenzy. The Sprout team helped PopCap to make a sequel to the game, Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown, with Gwertzman becoming the Director of Business Development at PopCap. In early 2006, PopCap International was opened, based in Dublin, Ireland, working on product localization, mobile games development, marketing, sales and business development.
