Puka, the shapeshifting game studio

pukagame.com Observed source
Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An Irish-folklore-inspired indie studio making small mobile games with one memorable mechanic at their center.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-14 issue.

Field notes

Puka frames each game as a different transformation of its Irish folklore-inspired identity rather than as entries in one franchise. Chalk Hero is specified as an iPhone-first, portrait game with three-to-five-minute runs and a one-thumb control scheme; its central action is drawing a loop around doodles on a blackboard. Other listed projects include a stationery tower defense game, a written-character merger, and a night-market tycoon story.
