Our Values

Trust

We trust our people. We work with them (and with each other) because we believe in our colleagues’ abilities and judgment. Everyone is welcome and encouraged to share opinions and concerns, and the owners / leads will always be open to feedback and consider it carefully.

Craftsmanship

We care deeply about the quality of our work. In creating a high-quality product or a believable world, every detail matters and is worth getting right. We value precision and a hand-crafted feeling in our games.

Originality

We endeavor to create products that feel new and different, and we avoid chasing trends. It’s important to strike a balance between the familiar and the unfamiliar, but originality is a core pillar of our games. Sometimes that might mean taking risks and avoiding the safe path, but that’s ok. Truly memorable games are the ones that break new ground and create new trends, rather than following old ones.

Humility

We know that nobody’s infallible, and everyone is learning all the time. We look for colleagues who are humble, open-minded, and eager to expand their knowledge. We cultivate a culture where everyone feels a sense of ownership over the project and we trust their judgment.
