Snap is taking<\/span> a leaf out of the Asian messaging app playbook as its social messaging service enters a new era.<\/p>\n

The company unveiled a series of new strategies that are aimed at breathing fresh life into the service which has been ruthlessly cloned by Facebook<\/a> across Instagram, WhatsApp, and even its primary social network. The result? Snap has consistently lost users since going public in 2017<\/a>. It managed to stop the rot with a flat Q4<\/a>, but resting on its laurels isn\u2019t going to bring the good times back.<\/p>\n

Snap <\/a> has taken a three-pronged approach: extending its stories feature (and ads) into third-party apps<\/a> and building out its camera play with an AR platform<\/a>, but it is the launch of social games<\/a> that is the most intriguing. The other moves are logical and they fall in line with existing Snap strategies, but games is an entirely new category for the company.<\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t hard to see where Snap found inspiration for social games \u2014 Asian messaging companies have long twinned games and chat \u2014 but the U.S. company is applying its own twist to the genre.<\/p>\n
