Gamsole is an African based mobile game production company. Gamsole was founded by Abiola Olaniran in April 2012[1]. With a truly global audience Gamsole has been able to produce world-class games at lower cost hence greater return on investment than other foreign competitors[2]. A month after launching their games in 2013 in the Windows Phone Store, over 600,000 players worldwide have fallen in love with the addictive game-play[3].
