==History==
Pou was created by Lebanese game designer [[Paul Salameh]], the owner of the company [[Zakeh]]. He came up with the idea after his previous game, ''[[Persian Maze]]'', failed to attract many players. A friend suggested that he should make a game about a cat, but Salameh decided to make it an alien instead
The game became a huge success, reaching over 100 million downloads by December 2013. It was compared to ''{{W|Tamagotchi}}'', a popular virtual pet game from the 1990s, but Salameh said that Pou was not really inspired by it.<ref>https://www.wamda.com/2013/05/the-24-year-old-lebanese-entrepreneur-behind-pou-top-mobile-kids-game</ref> He said that Pou was a different concept and that there were many kinds of creatures in the game. The game also spawned merchandise such as toys and clothing.
