About Bonobo Software

Bonobo Software is a Finland-based game studio dedicated to creating worlds players will want to get lost in. Founded in 2022, the studio was born out of the COVID lockdowns and a shared frustration with the severe lack of co-op multiplayer RPGs worth sinking a weekend into. What began as two university students sketching out their dream game on a couch has grown into a dedicated four-person team building Taival, a handcrafted, blocky open-world co-op RPG with a shapeshifting companion at its heart – and quite possibly the only game of its kind.
