Mystery Studio

Mystery Studio is a casual game development studio based in Montevideo, Uruguay. Mystery Studio is mostly known for their hit game, Betty's Beer Bar, which brought the theme and general mechanic of Tapper to the casual gamers, transforming it completely along the way, and creating a whole new genre of casual games, multitasking/serving games, whose more recent hit members include Diner Dash and Mystic Inn.

History
Mystery Studio was founded by Gabriel Gambetta and Esteban Guelvenzu in 2002. Over the year it has developed several 1st and 3rd party games such as Betty's Beer Bar and CSI:NY : The Game.

Mystery Studio also notably partnered with publisher Playfirst in 2006, developing a dynamic match-three puzzle game, Pirate Poppers, that Playfirst distributed. Pirate Poppers was well-received, breaking the top 10 downloads and top 10 sales lists of major downloadable game channels.

Mystery Studio's director and CTO Gabriel Gambetta is a noted Linux proponent, developing his games exclusively under Fedora Linux and cross-compiling them for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X, the two platforms that his games are actually on sale for.
