Playdemic appoints Ian Livingstone as Chairman

UK social games developer Playdemic today announced it appointed Ian Livingstone as the company’s Chairman.

Besides being an accomplished fantasy author, Livingstone is best known in the games industry for co-founding tabletop gaming company Games Workshop, and his position as Life President of Eidos.

Playdemic has seen some ups and downs in the past couple of years but it seems that the company managed to weather the hardships.

After seeing some success with its Gourmet Ranch in 2011, Playdemic was acquired by developer and publisher RockYou.
