Who are we?
Code Wizards and Multiplayer Wizards – Build online player services and Run our NOC to make your game run seamlessly. For 20 years our mission has been to de-complicate your life, make your games more awesome, and enrich players experience of your game.
Our services cover all parts of the studio and game lifecycle; we help with building studios, creating backend solutions, data analytics and then we can monitor and manage your game when you go live. Whether you’re Unreal or Unity, AWS or Azure, Databricks or Snowflake, Playfab or Nakama or bespoke backend, we’re the experts who love to help.
We work with studios as a partnership; allowing us to integrate seamlessly into your team(s) and bring more value than “just a bunch of contractors” ever could. Studio Wizards helps you run your teams; securely and easily. Code Wizards brings development and engineering so we make sure you’re always ahead of the curve. While our Multiplayer Wizards ensure your launch is easy and from then on your game is in safe hands so you can sleep soundly.
