Hedyverse is a development company.
We build the things people gather around: on a table, on a phone, on a screen.
Work
Guess the Mess
Everyone has a secret location. Pass your mess, decode your neighbor’s, guess where it belongs.
Link Out Loud
Two icons, one word to link them, your team racing the clock.
Photo Dump
A prompt, your own camera roll, and everyone guessing what the prompt was.
Earbus
Every clue is a sound. Screeching halt. Barking mad.
Word Monster
A classic word puzzle game brought back. 600+ puzzles, 12 worlds, 12 monsters to collect.
Snack Society
A cozy match-three where every snack on the board is a citizen with opinions.
Flickmoji
Guess the movie from a string of emoji. 30 levels plus a Daily Flick.
Bookish
Coming soon!
More in development across tabletop, mobile, and television. Most of it we can’t talk about yet.
We develop games and IP for publishers, entertainment companies, and creators. Clients include Buffalo Games, Asmodee, OtherWise Games, and Hello Puzzlers.
“They know how to take something you’ve built and turn it into something people want to gather around. Our first game couldn’t be in better hands.”
Founders

Jessica Aceti
Jess spent her career developing games, from Cranium through Forrest-Pruzan Creative, where she helped establish Prospero Hall, the in-house publishing unit behind Disney Villainous, Horrified, Pan Am, and Jaws. Disney Villainous won Game of the Year at the 2019 Toy of the Year Awards and the line has since sold close to three million units. She served as VP of Business Development at Funko Games, where she helped launch Funkoverse, and she runs Marge Games, Hedyverse’s own publishing unit.
Our name is a nod to Hedy Lamarr, the actress whose frequency-hopping patent underpins modern wireless. She is the reason we believe entertainment and technology belong in the same hands.
