Report: Zynga Eyeing Draw Something
A new report published today says massive social games maker Zynga is in talks to acquire the developer behind the recent smash-hit iOS game Draw Something.
TechCrunch reports that a source with direct knowledge of the discussions said talks are currently in the early stages to purchase developer OMGPOP. Other companies are also reportedly in the mix to acquire the studio.
The price for the deal could be between $150 and $250 million. Both Zynga and OMGPOP have declined to comment on the report.
