WildTangent was a PC/web game company founded in 1998 by Alex St. John and Jeremy Kenyon.

WildTangent used to develop their own original games, sometimes to advertise various companies, TV, and movies. Most of the WildTangent titles were discontinued and have become lost or missing.

The reason they discontinued their games is unknown. However, they were criticized because their games contain spyware, the company no longer distributes or develops Web Driver.

WildTangent have since distributing other games from other companies and other developers.

The company used to offer anybody to buy WildCoins for any games, it has been since discontinued.

Most of WildTangent games were all stored in GIT type system/source safe so no one needed personal copies, according to a former WildTangent employee. But no information have been confirmed.

The company used to developed their own original mobile games and used to be available on App Store (for iOS) and Google Play (for Android), but has been since removed and no longer available to purchase.

Gamigo AG have since acquired the company in 2019.

Technology

In order to play WildTangent games, the user would have to install WildTangent Web Driver and Microsoft Java Virtual Machine. Java would need to be uninstalled or disabled in case it blocked these games from running. The antivirus software would have to be disabled in case it blocked them from running as well.

The games had online and offline versions, but the online versions no longer function.

WildTangent owns Genesis3D game engine, but the company do not handle responsibilities for Genesis3D games.

Availability of Games

Most discontinued WildTangent games are no longer available for purchase, but some can still be downloaded from other distributors or somewhere else, CD that has some games, or anybody who has the game backed up. The list of games that are lost and found can be viewed below. And the list of distributed web games as separate list can be viewed below as well.[1] A MEGA folder of the currently found old WildTangent games and other stuff is available here for download.

As of present day, 27 of their original games (including Lumines) currently available to purchase and 12 original web games still available to play on WildTangent website, and while Sea Life Safari (Xbox 360/Xbox Live Arcade version) still available to purchase on Xbox website. Bringing the total of only 40 WildTangent games still supported, as of now.

The only retail WildTangent games available to purchase somewhere else was Fate, Fate: Undiscovered Realms, Fate: The Traitor Soul, Fate: The Cursed King, Penguins!, Polar Bowler (PC version), Polar Bowler (Nintendo DS version), Polar Golfer, Polar Golfer: Pineapple Cup, Polar Pool, Polar Tubing, Tornado Jockey, Lilo & Stitch Pinball, and Xbox Music Mixer (for Xbox), but were rare to find.
