The big Tadow!

With Tadow!, you can have all these features within a few minutes and give your users the ability to promote your game to other Tadow! users through traditional social networking features – even if their friends aren’t playing your game.
It’s simple – everytime someone is playing your game, all of his/her friends will know.
Are you ready to start?
The Tadow! API can usually be integrated into your games in less than 15 minutes.
At a minimum, we recommend adding the startSession, recordScore (if applicable), recordAchievement and endSession calls to your game. These four simple calls will record and promote everything about your Tadow! enabled game to Tadow.com, the Tadow! iPhone application, and all integrated social networks like Facebook and Twitter.
What are you waiting for? 15 minutes of work for a lifetime of awesomeness awaits!
