OUR JOURNEY: BUILDING GAMES THAT CONNECT

Uken's story began in 2009 with a simple idea: make games that people love. It all started with Game Wars, a breakout hit that set the stage for bigger dreams. In 2019, Uken expanded its vision, launching the cozy narrative experience Ava's Manor.

Partnering with Sony, Uken transformed legendary game shows like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire and Jeopardy! World Tour into mobile adventures enjoyed worldwide. Today, driven by data, creativity, and small-but-mighty teams, Uken collaborates with entertainment leaders to reimagine games as an essential part of the future of entertainment.
