ChimpWorks

ChimpWorks is an independent mobile game development studio founded in 2014 in Eindhoven, Netherlands. It develops casual and hyper-casual games for iOS and Android, with a portfolio spanning stunt racing, arcade action, puzzle games, and tower-defense and merge mechanics. Its games emphasize short sessions and immediately accessible play.

The studio combines game design and programming with 2D and 3D art, animation, and prototyping. Its portfolio includes both independently released games and titles developed in collaboration with mobile publishers. This approach allows ChimpWorks to work across different release arrangements while continuing to create its own mobile games.

Games and publishing

A longstanding publishing collaboration with Ketchapp includes Rider, a stunt-racing runner reported to have surpassed 150 million downloads worldwide. Its sequel, Rider Worlds, brings the series into 3D. Other releases include Baseball Boy, Stack Jump, Rush, and Horizon, covering distance-hitting, jumping, rolling, and flight-based arcade experiences.

ChimpWorks also self-publishes games, including Power Painter, which combines tower-defense and merge mechanics. Its wider catalog includes the arcade shooter Shoot N Loot, the minimalist hexagonal puzzle game Hexit, and titles such as Car Merger, Jelly Merger, and Gravity Switch.

The studio uses the developer pseudonym Monkeyfood Games for selected games released through Voodoo and Ketchapp. Across its portfolio, ChimpWorks reports 19 released games, more than 350 million cumulative downloads, and over 1.3 million five-star ratings.
