Independent game studio
Takiko Games is a small independent studio making co‑op games for friends and family. Our first, Nehemiah, puts up to four of you on the walls of an ancient city with 52 days to rebuild them.

Rebuild the wall of Jerusalem in 52 days.
A co-op action-strategy game for 2–4 players, like Overcooked meets tower defense. Carry wood, stone and mortar, raise the wall with your own hands, and keep the raiders off the builders, because builders with full hands can’t defend themselves.

Our next game is in early development: a new story, and another crew to play it with. We’ll show it here when it’s ready. Until then, Nehemiah keeps getting better.

We make the games we love to play with friends: a clear goal, too much to do, and a crew that has to work together or fail. Our stories come from history and the people who lived it, and we treat them with care.
Mechanics grow out of the story, not the other way round. In Nehemiah the wall takes 52 days, the work goes gate by gate around the city, and the builders keep a weapon close at hand.
We design for a crew. Everyone has a job, nobody can do it all, and the fun is in covering for each other when the raiders come.
Every idea has to earn its place by being fun to play. Easy to pick up, a little chaotic, and never a lecture.
We’re a small independent team. We read every message, and our games keep improving because players tell us what to fix.
