Happy Broccoli Games

Happy Broccoli Games, is a Berlin-based indie studio with a small team, but one that has a big impact. It’s difficult to stand out and find success among the many titles released on Steam every year, and it’s even more difficult to do so three times. With their debut, Kraken Academy, they focused primarily on narrative games with a small scope but a high degree of focus and refinement, which they were able to further intensify with the two Duck Detective games, The Secret Salami and The Ghost of Glamping. What is particularly impressive is that Happy Broccoli Games was able to release the last two instalments without a publisher and still hold its own in the highly competitive indie sector.

We would also like to highlight the diversity of their team, the characters in the games themselves, and the themes they address in their stories. The Happy Broccoli Games team is diverse, and this is reflected in their titles. In Happy Broccoli Games, we see a small studio with great potential that is conquering the indie scene with wit, heart and innovative ideas.
