Our games
One game so far. Crafted with love. We’d rather ship one game we’re proud of than ten we’re not. Here’s our first.
Connect: Word Puzzle Link two ideas in six words.
Every level links two ideas that seem miles apart, like Pizza and NASA. Find the six hidden words in between, letter by letter, and watch the chain snap together.

Something new is in the sketchbook. Our next game is still a doodle with big ambitions. When it’s ready to play, you’ll see it here first.
The studio
Independent, curious and a little obsessive.
the101company is an independent mobile game studio based in Romania. We design our games end to end: the puzzles, the words, the art and the code.
We test in every language we ship, sweat the small stuff like accents and haptics, and keep our games welcoming for players of every age.
Short sessions, long-lasting fun Built natively for iPhone and iPad Seventeen languages, one careful process
What we believe
Games should feel good, and do good by you. Joy in every tap Bright colours, satisfying feedback and gentle haptics. Our puzzles feel good in two minutes or two hours.
Fair by design Free to play, with every purchase optional. The App Store always shows the price before you buy.
Made for every player Rated 4+, playable without an account and built for 17 languages from day one, accents and all.

How we work
From doodle to your pocket.
Sketch Every game starts as a doodle and a question: what would make this moment delightful?
