Coming soonOur first game is nearly ready to launch, with a new name and a home of its own. We'll link to it here as soon as it's out.
Ask about itWhat we're about
The name is a joke; the games are not. We make small, carefully tuned games for phones, with one good idea polished until it shines. No dark patterns, no nagging, and no data we don't need.
One idea, done well
Every game starts with a single mechanic that feels great in your thumbs. Everything else has to earn its place.
Respect your time
Play for two minutes or an hour. No energy timers, no daily guilt trips.
Private by default
