Joyglitch  ·  Porto, Portugal  ·  Est. 2022

Bringing you joy
in new and
unexpected unexpected unexpected ways.

A tiny — but boundlessly ambitious — games studio delivering joy in bite-sized portions.

A studio built on passion.

Joyglitch was founded by passionate game developers with over a decade of collective experience across leading mobile studios, including Scopely, Socialpoint, MadBox, and GameHouse, where they contributed to blockbuster titles like Scrabble Go and Monster Legends.

With a shared dream of building their own games, they founded the studio in March 2022 — and quickly launched their first successful title, Wordling! Daily Word Challenge.

The Joyglitch team remains small and lean — our developers bring outsized craft and ambition to everything they build, and are already hard at work on their next titles. We cannot wait to show you!

The people behind the games.
