About PolyPirates
Smartphones are becoming more and more powerful and play an increasing role in people’s lives. For this reason, the Indie Games Studio has set out to develop games that use the smartphone as a controller and establish a whole new gaming experience on the market.
About PolyPirates
Founded in 2021, PolyPirates is dedicated to developing games that transport players into magical realms, providing an escape from reality. Specializing in premium titles, they focus on delivering short yet highly replayable experiences, particularly in the roguelike card game genre. PolyPirates are committed to diversity and representation.
This is especially evident in their latest title, Once Upon a Rogue’s Tale, where they reimagined classic fairy tales with a modern twist, featuring a rich array of diverse characters. Their mission is to create games that not only entertain but also resonate with a wide audience, while celebrating the magic of storytelling.
Our Team
Yannik

- Technical Lead
Sarah
- she/her
- Creative Director
Women on board bring bad luck? Rather the opposite! Who else but me would get the crew to calm down again when they’re bubbling over with ideas? On the side, I program and design, and occasionally freak out myself. But what would an adventure be without a little chaos in between?
Chris
- he/him
- QA & Balancing
Since summer 2023, we welcomed our first permanent crew member on board, Chris. No bug, no matter how well hidden, is safe from him. As a tester, he tracks down every little mishap. We rely on his enthusiastic support not only for testing, but also in other areas such as research and game design.
Janna
- she/her

Meet Janna, our talented freelance artist who joined our journey for our second adventure. She has a unique artistic style that sets her work apart and helps us to create a cohesive look and feel for our second title Kind Nature. She’s skilled in various digital art tools and has a keen eye for detail.
Isa
- she/her

Once upon a time there was a talented artist called Isa. She supported the PolyPirates team in the art department from their very first title, SnackHunter. One day, they decided to develop a game together. It was called “Once Upon a Rogue’s Tale”. Since that day, the pirates and Isa have been sailing towards the horizon together.

Heyho Sailor! I met the PolyPirates on one of my flights across the seas of Düsseldorf and was so excited to find out what they experience on their journey that I just stayed with them. It would be a shame if their story went untold, so I took it upon myself to dip my quills in ink and write it all down.
