Skunk Studios® formed in the summer of 2001 with one purpose - provide high quality games that exceed the expectations of gamers. Whether with the whole family or playing solo, Skunk Studios games are designed to entertain. With a focus on creativity and ingenuity, we put our hearts into game development. Your happiness is our goal.

When you purchase a game from Skunk Studios, your money helps fund the creation of new games. We'd like to say, "Thank You!" to everyone who has purchased a Skunk Studios product. And another "Thank You!" to all the publishers and distributors who have placed our titles on sites around the globe. You have helped to fund development of many great new games, including the eagerly anticipated Mah Jong Adventures’ and QBeez’ 2.

In 2004, Skunk Studios extended its game catalog in a BIG way by adding over 300 games by other developers. A new Skunk Studios website emerged in October 2005, with improved accessibility to games and a customer support service that is second to none. The new and vastly improved site includes community features, customized member pages, and much more. Come join our family and let the good times roll!
