Perfectly adequate games.
We build ad-free iOS games and apps that are honestly pretty decent. No ads, no gem bundles, no nonsense — just games the way they used to be. We set the bar at exactly the right height, and then, more often than not, we clear it.
Small studio. Modest ambitions. Solid results.
Mediocre Games is a small independent studio building games and apps exclusively for iOS. No, like seriously small — one developer and a lot of AI. The name keeps us humble; the work speaks for itself.
iOS Games
Snackable, satisfying games you can play while pretending to listen in meetings. Reasonably fun, guaranteed.* Ad-free, actually guaranteed.
iOS Apps
Apps we actually find useful and like — all without that annoying ad banner glued to the bottom. They might work, they might not. But hey, we built them.
Weird Experiments
Sometimes we build things just to see if we can. Sometimes they even ship. This is where the fun ones come from.
Android?
Ew. No. We aim for mediocrity, and we simply cannot aim that low. Our sincere apologies to all four of you who were going to ask.
Games the way they used to be.
Remember when you bought a game and then just… played it? Wild concept. We're bringing it back.
Somewhere along the way, mobile games stopped being games and became vending machines with a game attached. We're not doing that. We focus on the games, not the revenue — which, given our name, is probably the only business plan we're qualified for.
We also love playing the popular stuff. What we don't love is being forced to watch three unskippable ads just to open a chest, spin a wheel, or continue existing. That's not gameplay — that's a hostage negotiation. It cuts into precious gaming time and makes you want to poke your eyes out with an Apple Pencil (sold separately).
So we're building our own ad-free variations of the ad-riddled games you already love. Same satisfying loops you can't put down — minus the ads, the timers, and the $99.99 “BEST VALUE!” gem bundle glowing in the corner.
The House Rules
- No ads. Not one. Not even a “fair” one.
- No $99.99 gem bundles. No gems at all, actually.
- No energy timers deciding when you're allowed to have fun.
- No “watch an ad to continue.” You just… continue.
- Pay once (or nothing), play forever.
- Your gaming time stays gaming time.
Coming soon(ish).
The first titles are in the works right now — ad-free takes on familiar favorites, exclusively for iOS. We'd show you screenshots, but then we'd have to finish them first. Check back — the cabinet is warming up.

That game you already play, minus the 30-second ads. You know the one.

Too early to talk about. Mostly an argument in a group chat.
