Playrix Launches Manor Matters on AppGallery Following Previous Partnership Success
Following the roaring success of both Gardenscapes and Homescapes on AppGallery, Playrix returns with more delightful brain-teasing gameplay for Huawei’s growing audience. From 15th June onwards, Manor Matters, another popular game from Playrix, will be available to AppGallery users.
Manor Matters invites gamers to explore the old and abandoned Castlewood, inspecting and renovating rooms to uncover the secrets within hidden objects. As well as testing your detective skills and teasing you with an intriguing storyline, Manor Matters is designed to inspire creativity alongside its addictive-style gaming.
What inspiring is that Manor Matters brings exclusive gifts to celebrate its launch on AppGallery; players will be able to redeem gift packs from launch, containing 500 coins and 50 energy units. Coupons which provide a 70% discount [1]on the Playrix Basic Pack will also be available at launch meaning gamers can access more gameplay for less.
New gamers can experience a truly immersive Playrix experience by making the most of the offers available, using coins to jump ahead and energy units to run additional search scenes without having to wait for it to replenish. Both offers are simple to download and available directly from the Manor Matters page within AppGallery. For an even richer Playrix experience, gamers in Europe can claim additional Golden Ticket vouchers at the start of every thematic Season Challenge. Golden Tickets are not only available for Manor Matters, but also for Gardenscapes and Homescapes as well. Through AppGallery, users who have achieved level 30 or higher can purchase the Golden Ticket at 4,50€, a whopping 80% savings off the usual price of 5,49€.
“We are thrilled to have the chance to offer our well-loved Manor Matters game to more gamers around the world through our partnership with AppGallery. Having previously seen the successful launches of both Gardenscapes and Homescapes, we are excited to see the how Huawei gamers respond to the new gameplay options and look forward to hearing of their experience,” said Maxim Kirilenko, Chief Business Development Officer at Playrix.
Following the successful Playrix launches so far, with both Gardenscapes and Homescapes reaping the benefits of AppGallery’s expanding audience, fans of the well-known restoration challenges can expect to see much more in the coming months.
Huawei Offers Technology Support to Partners
As one of the fastest-growing global app marketplaces, Huawei’s partnership with Playrix has provided the strong operational support it needed for each launch – releasing both Gardenscapes and Homescapes within just a few months. Manor Matters is another quality example of how a game can leverage Huawei’s HMS Core, integrating with the IAP kit to ensure a seamless payment experience for both users and developers.
“Huawei’s support and guidance throughout the launch process and beyond has been brilliant. We’re excited to be able to launch another one of our popular games on AppGallery because of it,” said Maxim Kirilenko, Business Development Officer at Playrix.

XSOLLA STRENGTHENS COMMITMENT TO ATLANTIC CANADA’S GROWING GAME INDUSTRY WITH EXPANDED EVENT PRESENCE
Global Video Game Commerce Company To Support Industry Growth Through Panels, Workshops, And Community Engagement Across Atlantic Canada
Xsolla, a leading global video game commerce company, today announced its participation in two major gaming industry events taking place across Atlantic Canada from June 3-5, 2026, reinforcing the company’s commitment to supporting regional game development ecosystems and fostering industry collaboration.
Xsolla will participate in both Game Invest East and XP Game Connect Atlantic, joining developers, publishers, investors, and industry leaders for discussions centered on the future of game development, investment, and innovation in the local area.
At Game Invest East, held in partnership with Scaffold, Xsolla will contribute to conversations around funding, growth opportunities, and the evolving business landscape for game studios.
Featured on the panel titled “If You Can Make It Here,” Xsolla’s Manny Hachey, Senior Director of Developer Success, joins Kate Edwards, CEO and Principal Consultant of Geogrify, and Amir Satvat, Business Development Director at Tencent Games, founder of Always Supporting the Games Community (ASGC), and a 2026 GamesBeat Visionary Award honoree, to explore how new regions and new entrants can survive and thrive in disruptive times.
Hachey, a native of Atlantic Canada, was personally requested by Scaffold to represent Xsolla at the event — a homecoming that adds a personal dimension to the panel’s central thesis. Having built her career and made her mark in Germany’s games industry, she returns with a firsthand perspective on what it takes to leave, build something meaningful abroad, and come back with proof of concept.
Xsolla will continue its Atlantic Canada engagement at XP Game Connect Atlantic in Halifax on June 5. John Nguyen, Regional Vice President, Canada at Xsolla, and Ted DiNola, Developer Evangelist at Xsolla, will host a workshop titled ‘Full Picture to Fast Lane: Xsolla Ecosystem Overview & Live SDK 3 Integration’, providing practical insights and actionable strategies for developers navigating today’s rapidly evolving gaming market.
Nguyen will also host a panel titled, ‘What Does the Future of Game Development Look Like in Atlantic Canada?’ where he will be joined by industry experts, including Ryan Filsinger from Iron Fox; Shawn Woods, CEO at Alpha Dog and VP of Interactive Society of Nova Scotia; George Greer, Founder of Besszong; and Jade Yhap, President of Interactive NB. The panel will explore the region’s growing role in the global games industry and the opportunities ahead for studios, talent, and ecosystem partners.
