About Mojo Bones
Mojo Bones is a British independent video game developer established in 2011. Its work spans mobile, PC and console games, moving between physics-based puzzles, survival adventures and collectible-card mechanics. The studio handles game concept design, gameplay programming, 2D and 3D art, and development across multiple platforms.
The studio debuted with Tongue Tied!, a 2011 iOS puzzle platformer starring Mick and Ralph, two dogs connected by an elastic tongue. Its early mobile catalogue continued with The Curse in 2012 and The Voyage in 2014, both produced through collaboration with Toy Studio. These releases established a body of puzzle-focused work before the company expanded into dedicated handheld consoles.
From mobile puzzles to survival adventures
In 2014, Mojo Bones developed Siesta Fiesta for the Nintendo 3DS eShop. The game combined breakout-style block-breaking with sidescrolling platform gameplay, extending the studio’s interest in combining familiar mechanics across genres.
Impact Winter brought the studio into atmospheric survival adventure development. Set eight years after a catastrophic asteroid collision, the game follows Jacob Solomon as he leads a group of survivors through a perpetual winter. Players must survive 30 days while balancing exploration with the group’s morale, heating and nutrition. Bandai Namco Entertainment Europe published the game on PC in May 2017, followed by PlayStation 4 and Xbox One releases in 2018.
Card battles and independent publishing
The studio subsequently developed City Wars: Tokyo Reign, an anime- and cyberpunk-themed roguelite deck-building card battler. Its dynamic track mechanics form part of a shift toward card-based tactical play, adding another genre to the company’s portfolio. Mojo Bones independently published the game on Steam and Nintendo Switch in 2022.
Across these releases, the studio’s catalogue shows a progression from mobile puzzle games to handheld, PC and home-console development, with projects built around distinct combinations of gameplay systems.
