About us
We are Mirage Game Studios
Our game development company is located in sunny Karlstad, Sweden and was founded during fall 2016 by four avid gamers and experienced developers. Together in collaboration with THQ Nordic, we released our first game Little Big Workshop in 2019, which exceeded expectations and opened the door to start work on a new original IP.
Our core team currently consists of 15 people; a merry mix of talents and personalities. We enjoy taking seemingly complex and advanced things, but make them more playful and accessible – and always with unique visuals and a humorous touch. Our next game, currently in development, will continue this tradition as a creative strategy game with lots of charm and player freedom.
