About Magmatic Games Ltd
Magmatic Games Ltd is a UK mobile game developer whose history spans competitive multiplayer shooters and casual puzzle games. Previously known as BRAVO COMPANY, the studio developed Forces of Freedom before shifting its focus to merge games and launching Travel Town - Merge Adventure. It now operates within the Moon Active group, drawing on the group's infrastructure and publishing support.
The company's legal history began with incorporation as Koyoki Limited in July 2011. It adopted the BRAVOCOMPANY LTD name in June 2017 and formally became MAGMATIC GAMES LTD in February 2021. These changes connect the historical Bravo Company studio with the continuing business behind Travel Town.
From tactical combat to merge puzzles
Under the Bravo Company identity, the studio pursued short-session competitive play through its “coffeebreak eSports” approach. Its flagship title, Forces of Freedom, was a real-time, five-versus-five tactical third-person shooter designed for mobile hardware. Developed using Unity, it featured military soldiers representing periods from the 1960s through contemporary special operations.
The game entered Google Play Early Access in 2017 and accumulated more than 20 million downloads worldwide. Despite attracting a substantial audience, it struggled to generate sufficient revenue to sustain its server and development costs. Its multiplayer servers were suspended on 14 February 2020.
The studio subsequently redirected its development toward casual puzzle mechanics. A new merge-game project began in 2020 and became Travel Town - Merge Adventure, combining the company's mobile development experience with a different genre and audience. The game's commercial success preceded Moon Active's acquisition of the business through Ruby Road Limited in August 2021.
Today, the studio's work centres on mobile game development, free-to-play production and ongoing game operations. Its capabilities cover game design, production, publishing and support for iOS and Android, with its current portfolio focused on casual merge gameplay.

Development and financing milestones
- Creandum provided early backing for the casual merge-game project.
