About us

It all began with a simple idea. To create a unique gaming universe combining strategy, music and magic, supported by a passionate community.

Behind Herd

Transparency. Sharing. Creativity.

Herd is first and foremost the story of a close-knit team of artists and developers from the world of independent video games. Together, we imagine, design and refine Herd, placing innovation at the heart of our approach.

We firmly believe that video games are more than just entertainment. It's also a powerful means of telling stories that question our vision of society.

Herd is about struggle: about monopoly and unchecked power, about the strength of the small and of communities.

It tells the story of a desperate fight, lost before it even begins, yet absolutely necessary for the sake of everyone.

Herd is also about the bonds that connect us, about friendship, and about the sacrifices we’re willing to make for ourselves and for others.

We want to create worlds that shed light on our own — worlds that speak about who we are, while making us dream and opening doors to new possibilities.

Games are also vessels for dreams, and we want to forge those dreams by hand.

Join our Community

Herd’s purpose is to bring people closer together: we want to build a community of players who are also active participants in the game’s development.

We aim to involve players in product governance, giving them a real voice in strategic decisions and in shaping the overall experience.

We want to create a new way of making games and staying connected with our community.

Because we believe in the power of the collective, we invite you to contribute to a transparent, creative and authentic project, alongside a dedicated community that is ready to help us build the future of gaming.

Empowerment

Our players are not just consumers. They become co-creators of their gaming experience.

Community involvement

We regularly invite our community to take part in decision-making, whether through surveys, votes, direct consultations, or playtests.

Responsive to player needs

Thanks to this kind of governance, updates and changes can be made faster and better adapted to player expectations.

Transparency

Players can see exactly how and why decisions are made, reinforcing trust in the game's ecosystem.
