Social connections between players and true cross-platform gameplay are cornerstones of all of our games.
We want to create games with content and features that last for decades; engaging in player-driven economies and highly social experiences.
We're a team of veteran game developers (and gamers) with numerous titles across multiple companies under our belts, including years of experience in the development and management of Social MMOs.
Our investors at Play Ventures are leaders in early stage investment into the most promising game studios and games services startups across the globe. The founding team is made up of accomplished entrepreneurs who we are proud to work with in achieving our mission.
