Mimimi Games

Mimimi Games has established itself as a major player in the German gaming scene since game design students Dominik Abé and Johannes Roth co-founded the Munich-based company in 2008. After creative experiments during their studies and a shift from mobile to PC and consoles, they proved in 2016 with the multi-award-winning Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun that the real-time stealth tactics genre was still very much alive, and shortly thereafter received the German Developer Award for Best Studio. With Shadow Tactics, the studio established itself as the ideal candidate to develop a new game in the popular Desperados series, and has now delivered another hit with both players and critics in the form of Desperados III. The company’s 28 employees work in flat hierarchies on a single shared project, in whose success they have a proportional financial stake. Mimimi is currently expanding, planning a new IP codenamed Süßkartoffel and is also acting as a publisher for the first time.
