Choice Provisions at a Glance

Choice Provisions began operations in 2008 as Gaijin Games before rebranding to its current name in June 2014. Based in Santa Cruz, California, this independent studio has released 17 games across the PlayPile catalog since starting their first project in 2010. They continue to work through 2025, though their output has slowed significantly in recent years. The company produced 14 titles during the 2010s but has only released three games in the 2020s so far. Their portfolio spans several platforms with a heavy emphasis on PC, where 13 of their games are available. PlayStation 4 follows closely with 11 releases, while Mac accounts for 10 titles. The studio also supports Nintendo Switch, iOS, and older systems like the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. Genres vary widely, but Indie is their most common category with 11 entries. Arcade games make up eight titles, followed by Adventure and Platform genres with six each. They have also ventured into Puzzle, Music, Role-playing, Strategy, Card & Board Game, and Shooter categories. The quality of their work shows a consistent pattern without reaching the highest tiers. Across 14 rated titles, the average score sits at 67.7 out of 100. No game in their catalog has achieved a great rating above 80. The majority of their titles fall into the good range between 60 and 79, with ten such games. Four entries received mixed ratings between 40 and 59, while none dropped below that threshold to become poor. Their top-rated releases include Runner3 from 2018, which scored 77.2, and Lilt Line from their early days in 2010 with a score of 77. Breakout Beyond appeared recently in March 2025 with a score of 76.5. Other notable titles like Shift DX and Woah Dave! also landed solidly in the good range. Recent years have seen them adapt to licensing deals, such as Hextech Mayhem: A League of Legends Story, which received a lower mixed score of 59.4. They also handled Bubsy: Paws on Fire! in 2019 with a score of 63.2. The studio remains active but maintains a modest release schedule compared to their earlier decade.
