While You Wait Games

Games for the bits in between.

We make quick mobile games for the queue at the till and the wait for the 7:42. Play a round, put your phone away, and it'll remember exactly where you were.

01 Our games

Pick one.
Play a round.

Every game we make is built around short sessions. Most rounds are over before the kettle boils, and none of them punish you for putting your phone down.

Don’t push it!

Tap to drop each block on the tower. Miss by a pixel and the next one comes in thinner.

Out nowWord gameZen and Arcade

A to Zen

A calm word game for the little gaps in your day. Drag across letters that touch to spell a word, and new ones drop in from the top.

Coming soonPuzzleChallenge and Endless

Glow Shift

A neon shape puzzle for one finger. Slide a row or column, line up five glowing shapes and watch them burst.

More in the oven.

We always have a few prototypes on the go. Join the list and you'll hear about them first.

02 Who we are

We are a small studio making games for the moments nobody plans for. The bus is six minutes out. You're third in the queue for coffee. Our games start fast and stop the second you need them to, and they never make you feel bad for leaving.

5secs

Our target from tap to playing. We test on old phones too, not only the shiny new ones.

90sec

A typical round. Long enough to get into, short enough for the queue at the till.

0

Energy meters. Same goes for fake countdowns and "your crops are dying" notifications.

1digit

Everything plays one-handed. The other hand is probably holding a coffee.

03 What we stand for

The rules we play by.

If a game breaks one of these, it doesn't ship. Simple as that.

01 Up

Your time comes first

If a game isn't fun in the time it takes to get served, it isn't finished. We keep cutting until it is.

02 Right

Stopping is always fine

Close the app halfway through a level and it's saved. No pop-up asking if you're sure. Real life gets in the way and that's okay.

03 Down

No tricks, ever

No energy meters, no fake timers and no guilt-trip notifications. If we want you back tomorrow, the game has to earn it.

04 Left

Small on purpose

We'd rather make one game we're proud of than four we're fine with. Staying small keeps us honest about that.

04 Stay in the loop

Got a minute?

Then you've got time for one of ours. Leave your email and we'll tell you when the next game comes out. That's the only thing we'll send.

Press, partners, or just want to say hello?
