Games that begin with a place.
The studio creates story-forward games where atmosphere and progression work together: a clue uncovered, a room restored, a path chosen, a system slowly understood.
Solo indie mobile studio
Handcrafted mobile games built around mystery, discovery, choice, and the quiet pull of stories worth returning to.
Studio
Stone & Tankard Games is a solo independent studio making atmospheric mobile experiences with a handcrafted feel. The studio is built around readable writing, steady progression, memorable places, and choices that make a world feel remembered.
Each game is designed to be approachable on a phone, but rooted in the older pleasures of stories, maps, mysteries, and paths that invite another look.
What we create
The studio creates story-forward games where atmosphere and progression work together: a clue uncovered, a room restored, a path chosen, a system slowly understood.
Choice-led stories with clear scenes, branching moments, and places that reward close attention.
Investigations, folklore, strange reports, and grounded tension shaped for mobile play.
Satisfying collections, restorations, and discoveries built around calm long-term progression.
Readable systems that grow over time, with rewards that feel earned rather than noisy.
Character growth, exploration, and small strategic choices without heavy friction.
Compact experiences that respect attention while still leaving a strong afterimage.
