Nukearts

Nukearts at a Glance

Nukearts operates as a Brazilian studio founded in 2009, though its activity on PlayPile covers only the period from 2020 through 2025. The company has released 18 games in total during this window, serving as both developer and publisher for every single title listed. Their portfolio leans heavily toward indie experiences, with 17 of their 18 titles falling into that category. Puzzle games make up the bulk of their work at 14 releases, followed by 13 adventure titles and 9 card or board game entries. They have also produced 7 point-and-click games and just 2 strategy games. Platform availability shows a strong focus on PC with all 18 games appearing there. Consoles are well represented as well, with 12 games on Nintendo Switch, 11 on PlayStation 4, 11 on PlayStation 5, 10 on Xbox One, and 9 on Xbox Series X|S. Mac users get access to 8 of their titles. The studio is best known for two specific series mentioned in their bio: Hextones and Hidden Cats. Recent activity highlights a steady stream of Hidden Cats releases. These include Hidden Cats in Tokyo from December 2024, followed by Hidden Cats in Rio de Janeiro in June 2025, Hidden Cats in Istanbul in September 2025, Hidden Cats in Spooky Village in October 2025, and most recently Hidden Cats in Christmas in November 2025. The output from Nukearts is concentrated entirely within the 2020s decade with 16 games, while the remaining two titles fall outside this specific recent window or are part of earlier projects not detailed in the active list. The company maintains a narrow scope by focusing on puzzle and adventure mechanics rather than broad genre exploration. Their release schedule for 2025 shows a pattern of monthly drops for their Hidden Cats series, suggesting a consistent production cycle during that year. While they have established a presence across major modern platforms, the small total number of 18 games indicates a modest overall footprint in the industry compared to larger publishers.
