The story behind our name



The Game Island team consists of passionate game designers, but above all – gamers. We want to create unforgettable games with original stories and freedom for the players in how they approach each task. Serum is our first project and we’re happy to say that the development is progressing as planned, and there’s a lot we want to disclose in the near future.

Part of the Game Island team:



Like with most studios out there, there’s a reason behind our name. And it’s actually quite simple. We’re called Game Island because our studio is literally located on an island. Wyspa Słodowa (Słodowa Island) is a small island on the Odra river in Wrocław. Our office is located close to the river bank with a great view of Wroclaw.

You might think that a team located in a modern office would know little about survival, but we do have our daily struggles, like; being the first to arrive in the very limited parking lot, navigating the one-way narrow roads leading to the island, getting distracted by the surrounding nature or refilling the coffee machine.

All jokes aside, we love our office and we love making games. We know that by the time Serum is finished, players will get to enjoy an immersive survival title that will keep them on the edge of their seats. Can’t wait to share more details.

Fun fact about Wyspa Słodowa: it’s the only place in the centre of Wrocław where alcohol consumption is allowed in public.
