Independent game studioStockholm, Sweden
Saiokatta is an independent game studio from Stockholm. We make original games for the phone in your pocket, the streets outside your door and the headsets of tomorrow. Old rules of play. New ways of making.
LVL 02 What we make
We work across genres, platforms and production models — and pick the format that fits the idea, not the other way around. Mobile, location-based, VR, AR and whatever comes next.
Mode 01 · Mobile
Pick up. Play. Repeat.
Fast, intuitive mobile games built for instant play, clear feedback loops and strong replay value. One thumb, zero tutorials and a very real “one more try”.
Mode 02 · Location-based
The world is your level.
Location-aware games that connect movement, discovery and real-world places with playful systems. Step outside and the map becomes the board.
Mode 03 · Immersive
Step inside.
Innovation in virtual and augmented reality is part of our longer-term vision — games you don’t just look at, but walk into, or see layered on top of the world around you.
Mode 04 · Lab
Rules optional.
New formats at the intersection of games, technology and immersive design. Some become games. All of them teach us something about what play can be.

LVL 03 How we work
Every idea starts with how it feels in your hands. Clear design and strong interaction beat long tutorials — if it isn’t fun in the first seconds, it isn’t done.
We combine timeless principles of play, interaction and accessibility with modern tools, emerging technology and new creative workflows.
Easy to enter, hard to forget. We design for different audiences and different moments — from a ten-second break to a long walk through the city.
We challenge established ways of developing and producing games — so the things we make can feel fresh, distinctive and forward-looking.
About people, places and perspectives. It shapes how we see products, stories and systems — and decides what we build next.

Player 1 Founder
Product leader · Creative builder · Explorer
Saiokatta was founded by Mateusz Piekut, a Stockholm-based product leader with a background in media production, digital product development and innovation. Across editorial environments, product thinking and emerging technology, one question has followed him: how do ideas become meaningful experiences for people?
Through Saiokatta he brings that perspective into games — combining creativity, curiosity and a belief that games can be both playful and purposeful.
“A simple ambition: to better understand the world — and perhaps make it a little more playful to be in.”
