Social Girl by Crowdstar

Social game developer Crowdstar Inc. has been a busy little bee over at the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

Earlier this week, I reported Crowdstar quietly launched Zombie Universe for iOS in Canada and filed trademarks for “Wildlife Safari” and “Zombie Universe by Crowdstar Network”.

They have now filed a trademark for “Social Girl” (Serial No. 85434592) on September 28, 2011, which looks to be another game targeted to females.

Crowdstar has had a lot of success with its “Girl” games. It has already released two: It Girl and Top Girl. 

In late June, Top Girl passed 1 million downloads within 10 days of being launched.

The Social Girl filing covers the following goods and services:

“Downloadable computer game software for use on wireless devices and computers; computer-game software, video game software, and computer game application software; interactive-video-game programs; electronic game software and electronic game application software that may be accessed via the Internet, computers and wireless devices; computer software to enable uploading, posting, showing, displaying, tagging, blogging, sharing or otherwise providing electronic media or information regarding the fields of virtual communities, electronic gaming, entertainment and general interest via the Internet or other communications networks with third parties”
