Relative Mischief is a fully remote, independent creative studio currently developing innovative games. Founded by a family that loves to play games together, we’re excited to bring a little mischief to your next get-together.
Who We Are
We create experiences that make you feel connected, no matter where you are or who you're with. Playing a Relative Mischief game feels like coming home.
What We’re About
What We Deliver
-
Connection isn’t always cuddle-puddles…it’s also mischievous! We want to see you grow closer to new friends and deepen lifelong relationships through raucous laughter, slug-bugs, and throwing popcorn across the table.
-
We’re your quest-givers - inviting you on your next adventure. We make high-quality, human-made products designed to help you take a break from the world and engage around the table.
-
Our mother’s unexpected passing was also her last lesson to the family: life is short. Relative Mischief is here because of her. She lived joyfully and meaningfully. We want to make every get together you have with your loved ones more fun than the last.
