Games

Original games, free to play.

Burnt Thumb Works is building original games that start as playable prototypes and grow into full systems. Some are fast and chaotic. Some are slow, dangerous, and story-heavy. All of them are built around original worlds, expandable mechanics, and the belief that small studios can still make strange, memorable things.
