Trio from Tencent boosts mobile gaming speed

Voodoo, the global leader in hyper-casual and hybrid-casual games, has partnered with Tencent Cloud and WeTest, Tencent's professional mobile game testing solution, to streamline quality assurance and maintain rapid release schedules.

The partnership, announced at gamescom 2025, aims to enable Voodoo to deliver high-quality releases while keeping up with its fast-paced development. Voodoo's titles, such as Block Jam 3D, Mob Control, Paper.io 2, and Hole.io, reach hundreds of millions of players globally and consistently top mobile app store charts.

WeTest conducted functional and compatibility assessments across a wide spectrum of Android and iOS devices. Their specialists designed hundreds of bespoke test cases for Voodoo, covering the entire player journey. Even minor functional issues, such as unresponsive controls, inaccessible rewards, or misaligned user interface elements, can quickly undermine player experience and lead to user churn.

For every identified issue, WeTest provided detailed reports with clear descriptions, step-by-step reproduction guides, screenshots, videos, and relevant logs. This meticulous approach ensures that Voodoo can address issues effectively and maintain player satisfaction.

Fred Sun, the General Manager of Europe at Tencent Cloud, expressed excitement about supporting Voodoo's pursuit of excellence and speed in gaming. Benjamin Robert, Technical Director on Block Jam 3D at Voodoo, shared similar sentiments, stating that the partnership allows Voodoo to focus on creating chart-topping games.

The partnership has also helped strengthen player retention, improve app store ratings, and reinforce Voodoo's position as a global gaming leader. Ads must load, display, and close smoothly on all devices for optimal ad monetization. Games must perform flawlessly across a broad range of devices and operating systems, including low- and mid-tier devices, for comprehensive device compatibility.

Hyper-casual and hybrid-casual success depends on two things: speed and flawless player experiences. Rapid development cycles demand testing processes that can keep pace with fast-moving production cycles. WeTest's partnership with Voodoo is a testament to this, ensuring that Voodoo's games continue to captivate players worldwide.

The specific commission given to Fred Sun or the name of the studio head involved in the strategic partnership between Tencent Cloud and WeTest was not disclosed in the available information.
