History
Bullshark Games presents itself as a small studio of players making games for players, with the line 'From Players To Players'. Its founder and CEO, Andre Villandberg, a former professional poker player who later worked at Derivco, Relax Gaming, Yolo Group and OneTouch, says its first game, Mafia Clash, came out in November 2023 through Hacksaw Gaming's OpenRGS. In an interview republished on its site in September 2026 he describes progression as the thread through its design: multipliers that grow, collection features and levels that link one spin to the next, balanced against high volatility; the studio says each game goes through many thousands of test spins before release.
Its catalogue of more than 30 titles leans on unusual themes and named mechanics, including Junkyard Kings 2, Lemur Levels, Gobstopper Grind, Age of Seth and Boombear Bros, with Arctic Duel and Doctor Dust listed as coming in October 2026. In a September 2025 interview republished on the site the founder said the studio is licensed by the MGA, and in a November 2025 one that its games are certified in Romania, Georgia, the Netherlands, Ontario and Greece through OpenRGS. The site also runs player tournaments verified through game-round replays.
