Shaman Games Studio at a Glance

Shaman Games Studio operates out of Kiev, Ukraine and has been active since 2010. The company lists fifteen titles on PlayPile, with eleven developed in-house and six published under their label. Their output spans from 2013 through 2024, though the volume shifted dramatically over time. Fourteen games released during the 2010s, but only one title appeared in the 2020s so far. This suggests a very slow recent pace compared to their earlier years. The studio focuses heavily on adventure and puzzle genres. Ten of their fifteen titles fall under Adventure, while nine are classified as Puzzle games. They also have several Point-and-click, Indie, and Visual Novel entries. Their distribution is almost entirely centered on PC with Microsoft Windows, appearing in all fifteen games. Mac support covers eight titles, while PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and iOS have far fewer releases ranging from one to three games each. Quality control seems consistent across their catalog. They hold five rated titles with no great scores above 80/100. Every single rated game sits in the good range between 60 and 79 points. The average rating across these five titles is 64 out of 100. There are no mixed or poor ratings recorded for the games they have released. Their highest scores belong to Witch's Pranks: Frog's Fortune - Collector's Edition from 2015 and Sea Legends: Phantasmal Light - Collector's Edition from 2014, both earning 70 points. Other titles like Dreamscapes: The Sandman - Premium Edition and Kingdom of Aurelia: Mystery of the Poisoned Dagger also received 60 points. Recent releases show a return to their core formulas in late 2024 with Spellchanted, a hidden object puzzle adventure. Prior to that, they released several games in 2017 and 2018 such as Dream Walker and Hiddenverse: Divided Kingdom. The lack of new titles in the last few years might limit their current visibility among players looking for fresh content.
