SAN FRANCISCO - A female project manager at a San Francisco gaming company on Thursday filed a lawsuit in state court asserting that the company maintained a "toxic work environment" in which female employees "faced hostility and a multitude of adverse actions based on their gender."

Haley Bowman, 33, of Ojai, filed a complaint in San Francisco Superior Court asserting a variety of state law claims against Super Free Games Inc., including counts for discrimination based on gender, for not receiving equal pay, and for being terminated while pregnant.

Super Free makes gaming apps that include, according to the company, "some of the most beloved in the Word, Trivia, and Puzzle genres." It claims to have annual revenues of $150 million.
