However, the decision was that Big Fish should catch a wave with hidden object titles and ride that trend for all it was worth. Back in 2008, Wylie says Big Fish Games had one of its biggest PC hits with a hidden object game, and one of the developers got the idea to do a solitaire game with a golf framing on it. It makes sense when you consider this game's rocky past. Before Fairway Solitaire, the company hadn't really had a hit on this level, and I'd argue it was because the company was playing around with its standard casual titles rather than digging in deep. It's been trying to break out in the iOS market for about the past year and a half. Big Fish has been around for a while making PC titles designed for a very casual audience, usually hidden object games and other casual time management fare. It turns out I'm not alone in my esteem for the great Fairway Solitaire app this company has put together "This game is growing our audience," Wylie told me.
My meeting with Big Fish Games' Patrick Wylie was one of my last meetings at GDC, but it was also one of my most satisfying.
