Brand manifesto



Stop playing. Start winning.

We’re addicted to winning, we live for the thrill of victory. In games, in business, in life. We love it. It fuels our imagination and creativity. It helps us to achieve our vision: building legendary games that players can enjoy for years.


Every day we work hard on this vision and we know that we will make it happen. Doubts, hesitations, quitting, wasting time – not for us. We want to live life to the fullest. We look for real emotions. We are addicts and we create addictions. Absurd? Maybe. Unhealthy? Who cares. Nothing will replace the sweet feeling of being in control, the overwhelming sense of hype.


Something that you only experience when you stop watching things happen and start making them happen. 


Brand basics

Heritage


Our origins that legitimize our presence on the market.




Chaos x Order. 

 

We bring the best of the two worlds together and make opposites work together: Russian gaming creativity x best corporate practices of the West. Imagination x reality. Rebellious spirit x discipline. Creativity x hard work. Transgression x perfection.

Ideal client 


Our brand speaks to an aspirational client. Because a brand that’s made for everyone, reaches no one.


Mastering the game.


Our clients are those who like the feeling of being in control. Those who love winning again and again. Those, who are not afraid to switch off, forget who they are, forget all the stuff they need to get done, and embrace their addiction. Again and again.

Vision 


Our brand perspective on the market, our future and the word at large.



Stop playing. Time

to start winning.


Whatever we do, we have only one purpose in mind: to win. Winning for us means to have determination and persistence. It means moving forward without wasting time. It means creating games of the highest quality. It means hearing from our clients and partners that our product is top quality. We are addicted to the feeling of victory and we want to give all the players out there an opportunity to experience it through our games.





Mission


Our product ambition that defines our day-to-day work.




Create genre-defining games that players all over the world will enjoy for years.


We are here to stay. This is why we are obsessed with the quality of our product. We are building games that will last and inspire.

Promise 


Our unique way of moving forward that helps us to achieve our vision. 




We create addictions.


We give our clients the feeling that they master the game. And we feel the same way. We are addicted to that feeling, being in control of our clients’ feeling of being in control. Is it good or bad? We don’t know. But it feels good.

Tone

of voice

We have four key rules for our tone of voice

Laid back & relaxed: 

Just as you would say it in real life.

No need to sound too cool and no need to waste time on courtesies and flowery expressions (unless you are a British Queen).

Don't


Gaming is a great way to relax. But don’t forget that spending all day in front of a screen is not good for you. We care about your health and life balance.
