ABOUT USI know what you're thinking,
"Another game developer? Yay... more F2P clones that monetize the worst aspects of human nature. We need another one of those like San Francisco needs another car hailing app"
Actually, we invest into technology that will create the next generation of storytellers. We're not pigeon-holed by genre, our internal games range from Sherlock Holmes recreated as a middle school nerd to tall tales of an "Indiana Jones of the Sea", what they have in common is none of them end in -Ville, -Clans, -Crush, -War, or -Casino.
