Zuma Island
is waking up.

A decade of augmented-reality experiments and one unfinished island game, now being rebuilt from the ground up. ZumaBet is Arvare's first mobile release — coming to Google Play.

What we've been building

One flagship release in progress, and a handful of working prototypes that came out of fourteen years of shipping small, strange things.

Coming to Google Play

ZumaBet

Wake up on Zuma Island.

A risk/reward mobile game built around a 6-row stone path. Place a bet, then cross the stones while hidden mines wait underfoot — survive, and your winnings multiply. Three Totems guide the island: Quest, Manager, and Dealer. Build up enough, and you can buy your own island — from a modest 2×3 plot up to a sprawling 6×15 — and set traps of your own for other players.

  • Quest Totem
  • Manager Totem
  • Dealer Totem

What's next

Beyond the stone path.

ZumaBet isn't one loop on repeat. Marble Race — rolling colored orbs through the ruins — is next on deck, part of a growing set of totem-guided mini-games layered under one island RPG.

The studio

Small team, long memory.

Arvare Studio started in 2011 building augmented and mixed reality applications — product demos, marketing experiences, early AR prototypes for brands and startups who wanted to show something no one else could yet.

In 2016, that same curiosity turned toward games: an island world where players bet, cross a path of stones, and try not to step on a mine. It never quite reached launch — the dialogue system was the part that was never solved. The idea didn't go away.

A decade and a few more prototypes later — AWKey's mini-game portal, an AR artillery experiment, a QR-tag keepsake app built under the MomentWrap name — that original island game is being rebuilt from the ground up as ZumaBet, Arvare's first release aimed squarely at mobile.
