United Command International is a British computer games company specialising in casual and social games for mobile phones and the web. The company was founded in 2009 and is headquartered in London, England and has development sites in various countries around the world.
The company was relatively quick to market with its debute game "Kyumi Puzzle" appearing 18 months into the launch of the App Store (when the total market was approximately 120,000 apps) and consequently achieved several million game installs, exceeding the install bases of many recent venture based startups with the total number of apps on the App Store having increased almost 5 fold January 5, 2010 to March 7, 2012. The company had an estimated 0.04% market share by Monthly Active Users in the fourth quarter of 2010 with the market for Mobile Advertising valued at nearly $100m at the end of 2009.
Although having a relatively large product portfolio and user base the company claims to have less than 10 full time staff. United Command produces games primarily for mobile platforms (110 games on the iOS App Store) such as iOS, Android, Windows Phone and web-based games.
The company has held numerous chart positions on the iOS App Store including #1 positions on the free app chart: #1 family game in Switzerland and Luxembourg

Notable bugs
The sliding puzzle game Number Slide was originally released with a bug that sometimes created puzzles which were apparently impossible to solve. This was fixed via an update but resulted in low scoring reviews from frustrated players during the interim period.
