The client is an international game studio developing mobile casual and puzzle games with a strong focus on high production quality and global scalability. The team specializes in transforming hyper-casual concepts into more polished casual products, combining engaging core gameplay with deep meta systems such as progression, live ops, monetization, and retention features.
