Nekki

Nekki at a Glance

If you are browsing PlayPile to understand the history of Nekki, you will find a company based in Germany that has been active since 2010. Their catalog on this site contains 11 titles where they acted as both publisher and developer. While their online bio claims to be a leading publisher with over one billion registered users globally, their actual rating data on PlayPile tells a more measured story. The company holds an average IGDB score of 63.2 out of 100 across the five titles that have been rated by critics. The ratings show a clear pattern of solid to good work rather than critical darlings. None of their reviewed games reached the great tier above 80 points. Four titles fall into the good range between 60 and 79, while one game sits in the mixed category below 60. Their highest rated title is Vector from 2012 with a score of 71.8. Shadow Fight 2 from 2014 follows closely at 70.7. Beat Da Beat from 2015 also scored well at 70. In contrast, the sequel Vector 2 dropped significantly to 42.8. Shadow Fight 3, released in 2017, holds a score of 60.9. Nekki has focused heavily on mobile platforms throughout their career. They have released eight games for Android and seven for iOS. Their genre focus leans heavily toward action, with seven fighting games and four role-playing titles in their portfolio. They have also made four arcade games and two platformers. The company has tried to reach consoles as well, with recent releases on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S appearing in their list. The volume of their output has slowed down over time. They published six games during the 2010s but only four in the 2020s so far. Their most recent works include Fight Me and Ninja Party, both arriving in June 2025. Earlier this decade they released Shades: Shadow Fight Roguelike in November 2023. The company continues to publish titles like Shadow Fight: Arena, but their overall rating profile suggests they produce consistent, average quality games rather than impressive hits.
