ANNUAL EVENTS AND CELEBRATIONS
Contrary to popular belief, game development isn't just about playing games. It's a hard career. Our teams recognise that everyone needs time to let their hair down and forget all about work. That's why we host regular internal events, including our monthly drink and game sessions, wrap parties and game jams. Of course, we also have to mention our annual events such as our Summer Family Big Day Out and Christmas parties too!

But do you know what makes managing it a little bit easier? When it's FREE!
