Ratalaika Games at a Glance

Ratalaika Games operates out of Spain and has been active in the industry since 2013. Their primary role involves porting and publishing titles for the console market rather than developing original content from scratch. The data shows they have published 163 games while only developing four. This strategy explains their massive output across platforms, with over 150 releases on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One. They also maintain a strong presence on PC and have successfully brought titles to older hardware like the PlayStation Vita and Linux systems. The company's focus is heavily skewed toward specific genres. Adventure games make up the bulk of their catalog with 115 titles, followed closely by Indie games at 110. They also publish a significant number of Arcade, Platform, and Puzzle games. Their output has grown steadily over time. In the 2010s, they released 55 games. This number jumped to 106 releases in the 2020s, showing a clear increase in activity as they expanded their reach to newer consoles like the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. Quality is a mixed bag for this publisher. Out of 39 titles that have received ratings on IGDB, the average score sits at 61 out of 100. The majority of rated games fall into the good range, with 24 titles scoring between 60 and 79. However, there are also eight mixed and five poor-rated entries in their catalog. Only two games have achieved great status above 80 points. Golf Zero from 2017 holds the top spot with a 90/100 rating. Gutwhale and Guard Duty follow with scores of 80 and 79 respectively. These higher-rated titles often appear in the Adventure or Arcade categories. Recent releases include Ash Pines: The Motel, Zooparasite, and Pokettohiro scheduled for August 2025. They also have Teraslide and Sfera coming out in July 2025. While they aim to provide entertainment by bringing games to consoles, the low average rating suggests that their catalog contains many entries that do not meet high standards. Players browsing their library should expect a wide variety of indie titles but may need to check individual reviews before purchasing since success varies significantly between their releases.
