From humble beginnings KING Art has become one of the most important game development studios in Germany. With our roots in Point&Click Adventures we focus today on storydriven RPGs and Strategy games. Almost twenty years of experience are accompanying us - and almost everyone who joined us stays with us until this very day. Great teamwork, respect, hard work and passion is what defines us as a team. This is important to us and that is why we at KING Art have clear values:

There is no “Hire & Fire” mentality at KING Art. We want to keep the team together because we believe that knowing the strengths and weaknesses of everybody leads to less stress and better games
We don't believe in crunch time and we don't believe that you get the best results under pressure. We have no interest in burning out our people
We want to make great games. We have a passion for games and the budgets finally fit our ambitions. Our goal is to make games people love. Not like. Love!
We grow with the people who are working here. There are no outside investors or pie-in-the-sky plans for the future. We founded KING Art 19 years ago and we are growing ever since
We believe that staying in close collaboration with our community leads to better games, and that it allows us to hit the spot for our players
We value to be open about how we develop our games, teach at universities, give talks and help young developers with word and deed
