T’CAW!

We're thrilled to be part of the inaugural Choices Matter Festival, hosted by Telltale.

Which is slightly awkward, because... Bad Magpie has a linear story.

However! Every puzzle in Bad Magpie has multiple solutions… and most of them are intentional. It’s a sandbox built around experimentation and improvisation, and we’re still discovering wildly inefficient solutions to this day.

To give you a sneak beak of things to come, we sat down and filmed a playthrough of Bad Magpie's demo. Producer Susie was finally allowed to get her hands on a controller and play the game under the highly questionable guidance of lead developers Catherine, Daisy and George.

We also keep talking about Tom Hanks. If anyone knows Tom Hanks please get in touch. 👇

We hope you enjoy this exclusive piece of content! Let us know us know how you’d approach the puzzles!

And remember, if you like what you see, don't forget to wishlist Bad Magpie NOW!P.S. don't worry, you'll be able to play the demo soon enough...

We've been travelling, posting on socials, surviving the heatwave, and somehow also making a game… Something had to give and thankfully it wasn't the latter. Speaking of making the game: placeholder art is currently on its way out, and tonnes of shiny new 3D assets are coming in. The whole team is buzzing. farewell sweet prince “…Community14 Jul 2026Bad Magpie at Gamescom 2026We're peckstatic to announce that we'll be part of the Indie Arena Booth at Gamescom this August!
