Tapinator & MGM Interactive Partner to Build ROCKY Mobile Game

NEW YORK, December 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --



Tapinator, Inc. (OTC: TAPM) [http://www.tapinator.com ], an emerging company within
the mobile gaming industry, is pleased to announce it has partnered with MGM Interactive,
a subsidiary of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios (MGM), to build a mobile game based on the
legendary ROCKY movie franchise. Tapinator expects to launch the free-to-play mobile game
worldwide in Q2 2016, coinciding with ROCKY's 40th anniversary.



"We are very excited to work with MGM in bringing ROCKY to mobile. Having grown up as
a huge fan of the ROCKY movies and the Rocky Balboa character, it is a privilege to now
bring this storied franchise to mobile devices," said Tapinator CEO, Ilya Nikolayev. "To
date, Tapinator has launched seven games that have been featured in 'Best New Games' on
iOS and the Company has created thirty-seven titles, each with over one million players.
We look forward to making ROCKY one of our most successful games in 2016."



ROCKY follows the story of an uneducated, blue-collar worker turned famous boxer who
inspired a nation to cheer for the "everyman" triumphing over all odds. The boxing saga
launched in 1976 with the release of the original ROCKY, which was the highest grossing
film of the year, producing an iconic Billboard #1 theme song, and was nominated for 10
Academy Awards(R), winning three, including Best Picture. Spawning five sequels in a
thirty-year period, from ROCKY II in 1979 to ROCKY BALBOA in 2006, the legendary franchise
is one of Hollywood's most successful collections of stories ever produced.



Mr. Nikolayev discusses the ROCKY mobile game in greater detail in a recorded
appearance on TheStreet.com, scheduled to be available for viewing today.

Forward Looking Statements 



To the extent that statements contained in this press release are not descriptions of
historical facts regarding Tapinator, they are forward-looking statements reflecting the
current beliefs and expectations of management made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as "may," "will"
"expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," and similar expressions (as well as other
words or expressions referencing future events, conditions or circumstances) are intended
to identify forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements contained
in this press release include, among others, statements regarding the quoting and trading
of our common stock and our expectations regarding our development and monetization plans
for our mobile games. Forward-looking statements in this release involve substantial risks
and uncertainties that could cause the development and monetization of our mobile games,
future results, performance or achievements to differ significantly from those expressed
or implied by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among
others, the uncertainties inherent in the hits nature of the mobile gaming business.
Tapinator undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements. The
quoting and trading of the company's common stock on the OTC Market Group's OTC Link
quotation system is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices,
due to many factors that may have little to do with the company's operations or business
prospects. As a result, there may be volatility in the market price of the shares of the
company's common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC
Market Group's OTC Link quotation system is not a stock exchange, and trading of
securities on it is often more sporadic than trading of securities listed on the NASDAQ
Stock market or another securities exchange. Accordingly, stockholders may have difficulty
reselling any of their shares. For a further description of the risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed in these forward-looking
statements, as well as risks relating to the business of the company in general, see
