WeChat introduces in-app gaming tab

Beijing: The China-based messaging and payments platform WeChat is adding an in-app mini-gaming platform to let users play basic games like Tetris, open to developers worldwide.

The company had listed two developers outside China for now and Google was one of them with its doodling game — “Guess My Sketch”.

WeChat said its mini games platform grew to over 400 million monthly active users, but that was still less than half of how many monthly active users were on the app — 1.082 billion mostly from China, The Verge reported on Thursday.
