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.

  • Word
  • Puzzle
  • Rated 4+
  • iPhone & iPad

Free on the App Store for iPhone and iPad

Connect on iPhone: a level linking two ideas, with letter tiles, four powers and the keyboard.

Next up

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.

Privacy-minded

We collect only what a feature needs. This website has no analytics, ad trackers or cookies of its own.

How we work

From doodle to your pocket.

  1. 01

    Sketch

    Every game starts as a doodle and a question: what would make this moment delightful?

  2. 02

    Prototype

    We build the smallest playable version fast, then throw away what isn’t fun.

  3. 03

    Playtest

    Real players, real devices, every language we ship. We watch, listen and fix.

  4. 04

    Polish

    Sound, haptics, animation and accessibility, until every tap feels just right.
