    Because they are a small company...commercials are very expensive. Additionally, MMOs are a very specific market which makes it hard to gain users through commercials. Most consumers are casual gamers.

    Since they will need a lot of money for this and they will only have a small growth so it will be money loss ( I found it by typing in legendary or smthn just luck).

    I just saw a lord-of-the-rings style B&B game on tv, surely they must be an even smaller company. STS isnt the local convenience store it was five years ago. Player base has multiplied over the years and it has gained recognition as a top developer of mobile mmos. It's gotta be at least as big as a regional franchise by now.

    And most of the games are multiplatform, so the content is easily adaptable to a wide market. If there was a cool commercial released in the U.S., even if it only ran on G4 (video game channel) it would still attract a few people. As of now, i could ask my friends about Arcane Legends and they'd say "What's Arcade Legends?"

    Did you see the G4 review of Spacetime Studios via Attack of the Show in the 2013 E3? It was a couple seconds and summed up how seriously G4 takes mobile online games.
