About us

We are an independent studio in the heart of Munich, developing our own IPs—like Songs of Silence—while also delivering high-quality work‑for‑hire projects from concept to release. Our portfolio spans mobile, PC, and console games across multiple genres, keeping our work diverse, ambitious, and never repetitive. For nearly two decades, we’ve built games that stand out—not just in quality, but in how they’re made. From Angry Birds Epic, Angry Birds Evolution, and Sacred Legends to our latest projects, we’ve worked on genre‑defining titles that push creative and technical boundaries. Whether designing combat systems, balancing game economies, or refining visual storytelling, our team takes ownership to ensure every project reaches its full potential. Player experience is always our priority, and we back our decisions with knowledge, data, and a deep love for games. We work fast, collaboratively, and with purpose, keeping decision‑making paths short and fostering a culture of trust and accountability. At Chimera, teamwork isn’t just about working side by side—it’s about sharing knowledge, challenging each other, and building better games together. You’ll be part of a skilled, driven team where ownership matters, boundaries are pushed, and every contribution has impact. If that’s the kind of environment you thrive in, welcome to Chimera.
