Mobile game studio publishing 50+ titles across casual and time-management genres
Nordcurrent is a 360+ person game studio founded in 2002, operating development centers across Vilnius, Dnipro, Warsaw, and Gothenburg. The tech stack—Unity, C#, Node.js, TypeScript, Firebase, MongoDB—is standard for mobile-first casual games, but the hiring pattern shows pressure: engineering openings outnumber design 3:1, and velocity is accelerating, suggesting scaling constraints in QA automation and ad optimization workflows. Pain points around ad fill rates and support automation indicate the studio is hunting for monetization efficiency gains.
Nordcurrent develops and publishes casual mobile games for iOS, Android, and PC/Mac. The studio's marquee title, Cooking Fever, has reached nearly 500 million downloads with 15 million monthly active users. Over 22 years, the team has shipped 50+ games. Revenue is driven by in-app advertising (Google AdMob, AppLovin MAX, Meta, Apple Search Ads) and player monetization tracked via AppsFlyer. The studio operates across five cities (Vilnius, Dnipro, Warsaw, Gothenburg, plus headquarters in Lithuania) and actively publishes new titles including Pocket Styler, Airplane Chefs, and Murder in the Alps.
Nordcurrent builds primarily with Unity and C#, supported by Blender for 3D assets and Figma + Adobe Creative Cloud for UI/UX design.
Nordcurrent has development centers in Vilnius (headquarters), Dnipro, Warsaw, and Gothenburg, with active hiring in Ukraine, Lithuania, and Poland.
