About:

Serving up finely crafted video games – with a retro twist!

Dadako’s software is a heady mix of retro aesthetics, virtual devices and engaging modern gameplay. We make games for console, PC and mobile.

History:

Founded in Tokyo, Japan by seasoned game developer, Hawken King. Dadako's first project, Facemakr, released in 2010 on iPhone 3 and iPad 1, to fanfare by Apple and users alike.

Since then, Dadako has gone on to release games and software on various platforms. Under it's own name or with the help of publishers. Dadako engages with talented creators to help make dreams become reality.
