Spill Games raises $10.5 million led by Elevation Capital
Bengaluru-based mobile gaming studio Spill Games has raised $10.5 million in a Series A funding round led by Elevation Capital, with existing investors Centre Court Capital and PeerCapital also participating. Founded in 2024 by former PlaySimple Games executives Om Misra, Tapan Ranjan and Harsh Garg, Spill develops free-to-play casual, puzzle and hybrid-casual mobile games for global markets. The company will use the funds to expand promising games, develop new titles, strengthen AI capabilities, invest in user acquisition and hire selectively.
Spill said the number of its games showing potential to scale profitably has doubled from three to six in less than three months. The company uses data on player retention and monetisation to assess performance, aided by its proprietary Compass platform. This follows a $3.1 million seed round in April 2026. The global mobile gaming market is estimated at $176.7 billion in 2026, according to Grand View Research.
