Our story
All our favourite characters have a great origin story, and that’s true for our founders too. Our co-founders, Mike and Gina, have more than 20 years’ experience working at big game studios such as King, Jagex and Rovio.
They’d long talked about embarking on a quest together and in 2021 this presented itself in the form of the metaverse. They spotted the potential for a professional game studio to elevate the quality of games on metaverse platforms, and so did their investors.
So they formed a fellowship of veteran developers and Roblox natives, and set off on their quest: to better the metaverse with exceptional branded experiences.
Our values
We believe in living the values we want to see for the whole industry, and that starts with being kind – to our players, our team, and our planet.
Together we’ve described what Talewind stands for:

Impact

Sustainability
We are actively working to make the world a better place one small step at a time. Our processes are reusable, our practices are designed with our team’s health at the forefront (hello 4 day work week!) and our games are built to last
Sustainability
Education
There’s always more to learn. We value innovation and are constantly collaborating, discovering and experimenting
Education
Our people
When we think about our people, that includes everyone in our community – not just our staff but our players too.
We want to have fun exploring the endless possibilities of the metaverse. But ultimately the best part is sharing unforgettable experiences with the people who share our passion: our gamers.
