About The Company

We're a collective of AAA veterans who decided to take a break from big productions and find refuge in the mountains of southern Poland. In the past, we've contributed our skills to the critical and commercial successes of games such as The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt or Baldur's Gate 3.


It's our goal to create immersive, story-rich games. From the very beginning of our studio, we focused on creating unique RPG experiences. We're players at heart and deliver the type of games we'd love to play ourselves.
