dla Vile Monarch w Warszawa, Wrocław lub zdalnie

Praca stała Zarządzanie


Vile Monarch, a hard rock games studio from Warsaw, is looking for someone who wields the ancient secrets of order and tidiness in naturally chaotic and filthy game projects. Currently, more than 80 royal followers reign in the studio, including veterans (who worked on This War of Mine, The Witcher series, Dying Light or Hard West), that in 8 years shipped 6 successful games, conquering PC, Android, iOS, PS4, Xbox One and Switch.

Crush Your Enemies - multiplatform bite-sized RTS
Oh...Sir!! The Insult Simulator - hit party game based on building absurd sentences
Oh...Sir! Hollywood Roast - a spin-off in the world of film
Weedcraft Inc - an insightful business simulator about the marijuana industry
Growing Up - a coming-of-age life-sim with visual novel elements, standing out with its unique art and mature take on childhood/parenting
Floodland - a post-catastrophic survival city builder - or a 'society builder', as it's a game that uses management mechanics to discuss social issues through the lense of a major catastrophe triggered by climate change.

Vile Monarch feeds on creativity - we love making fresh things of different sizes, for different platforms, in different genres. We focus on compelling fantasies served through expertly designed game systems. Currently we're working on one announced title:

The Last Alchemist - A wondrous Alchemy Management game about the blazing pursuit of science in a world of superstition
