Online social gaming developer for kids SuperSecret has secured $10 million in Series A funding led by Opus Capital. SuperSecret will use the capital to fund ongoing product development, build a distribution network, and deliver an engaging online experience to kids around the world.
SuperSecret is set to launch its flagship property, SuperSecret.com, this spring. SuperSecret.com is a new online social game for tweens who are ready to move on from Club Penguin or Webkinz, but are too young for World of Warcraft or Facebook. The company has already attracted major distribution partners based on the strength of its beta release, and tweens participating in the beta average 55 minutes per session.
SuperSecret is led by Ted Barnett and Tony Espinoza, both technology entrepreneurs who previously founded Internet calendaring service When.com and sold it to AOL.
