Playground Games takes second spot as First Touch Games claims third place

FreeStyle wins Develop Quiz in style

FreeStyle won the second ever Develop Quiz in Leamington Spa to take home bragging rights as the brainiest developers in the region.

The team successfully navigated through rounds such as name what game that texture is from, through the keyhole and name that trailer. They also scored top points on questions about the latest issue of Develop. But that was the easiest round, right?

In second place came Playground Games 1 on 80 points. First Touch Games finished third on 76.

Thanks to Develop Quiz headline sponsor Sega Hardlight and round sponsor Backspace for supporting another great evening in Leamington Spa.
