Serious about making things. Not about being serious.
A little curiosity. A little delight. A little trouble.
Pleasant Mischief is an independent creative studio developing original games, digital experiences, illustrated books, and imaginative projects.
The studio
We believe creativity should invite participation, spark curiosity, bring people together, and occasionally turn expectations upside down.
The world is more interesting when we play.
