Mimimi Games has announced it is shutting down and Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is its last game.

I really enjoyed this company's games, Shadow Tactics and Desperados III (I haven't gotten to Shadow Gambit yet because, let's be real, Baldur's Gate 3 just came out, but I was going to move on to this game next). It was the perfect modernization of an older genre, and it even worked great on controller. I was looking forward to seeing them grow and expand on these games or even branch out into something new, but it sounds like they just couldn't find work/life balance and decided to hang up the keyboards. Best of luck to them going forward.

I really like their games, I bought Shadow Gambit on launch and it's really fun, I was waiting for it for a while.

I hope they have a well deserved rest, creating games seems to be taxing.

Glad they're taking a break, and hope things work out for them. Making games is tough, and making games like this which are more on the niche side can't have been easy, especially since the profits probably weren't stellar either.
