Meet your Colleagues
I decided to start my career in the games industry many years ago at HandyGames™. Over time, my colleagues have become much more to me than just that – we’re now a family that cares deeply about the projects it brings to life.
After my parental leave, I’ve chosen a career at HandyGames™. The flexible workhours made the return to a professional life much easier and allowed me to still tend to the needs of my children and family as well.
Even though I am not a German native speaker, I have no difficulties whatsoever working at HandyGames™ since the teams are small and made up of international professionals. It does not matter where you come from – what matters are your talent, your ideas and your creativity.
We’re a little big family at HandyGames of round about 70 people. These 3 are just examples of the many benefits you can find here. All employees help together. We form carpools, meet for chill evenings or play volleyball in the summer. So, we are pleased to meet you!

In Würzburg, you will certainly find entertainment that suits your taste. Whether you enjoy going to the movies, to festivals or to the theater, listening to electronic, jazz or classical music, going salsa dancing, spending your time at hip bars or cozy restaurants, dancing the night away at parties or playing laser tag: the city has all this and much more to offer!
