Why Marvin?

Nostalgia-Powered Engagement

Retro-style games your audience actually wants to play β€” no boring banner ads.

Six specialists, one team

Two developers, two artists, a creative director and a dedicated account manager. Design, code, art and QA all in-house β€” never sub-contracted, with one fixed contact from brief to launch.

Proven at scale

44,637 people entered the last FantaSanremo campaign β€” 64% more than the year before, for a client who came back a second time.

What projects typically cost

Most advergames land between €3,000 and €9,000. Multiplayer builds start at €8,000 and go up from there.

Fixed price per format, agreed before we start β€” no hourly billing, no scope-creep invoices. Tell us your budget in the first message and we'll be straight with you about what fits it.

What's an advergame?

A playable ad β€” but way cooler: a browser-based game that puts your brand directly into the story and mechanics, not on a banner around it. We don't make games with your brand β€” we make games about your brand.

For creative agencies

Need a game for your next campaign?

Marvin works alongside creative, marketing and digital agencies as the specialist game-dev team behind their pitches β€” turning a creative concept into a real, playable experience without you having to build that expertise in-house.

Most of our work already arrives this way β€” through labels, agencies and in-house brand teams, with the client relationship staying theirs. The games in our portfolio are credited to the brand because that's the point.

  • Custom advergames & branded mini-games
  • Campaign activations & product launches

And they come back

The strongest thing we can show you isn't a quote β€” it's a repeat booking. Four years with Team Vitality, across five projects, still working together today. FantaSanremo back year after year. Nuclear Blast returning for the games behind their bands. Several agencies have booked us three or four times, each time with a different end client. Most of the collaborations on this page are still open right now.
