“We are bringing our existing publishing capabilities to talented developers. We started this process with one of our own IPs, by giving the entire project of Lords of the Fallen 2 to Defiant in New York. We are now delighted to start United Label, announcing the first 4 highly-promising games: Röki from Polygon Treehouse, Eldest Souls from Fallen Flag Studios, Tails of Iron from Odd Bug Studios and Horae from Lunaris Iris. United Label will pursue its expansion by gathering creative talents, offering a structure to success and building long-term relationships with developers.” says Marek Tyminski, CEO of CI Games.
Co-founded by two ex-Guerilla Games Art Directors, Polygon Treehouse is bringing a bright new approach to Point & Click Adventure games with Röki. “We created a dark and contemporary fairytale with deep narrative and puzzles, say Tom Jones & Alex Kanaris-Sotiriou, co-founder of Polygon Treehouse. Working with United Label enables us to be part of a creative and dedicated team.”
Eldest Souls is a pixel art RPG adventure game from Fallen Flag Studios. “This is our first game but United Label believed in the game and the team from day-one, they are supporting us to reach our ambitions”, says Francesco Barsotti, co-founder of Fallen Flag Studios.
Eldest Souls is a souls-like, pixel-art RPG. The Old Gods have long been imprisoned. Humanity has been prospering, with great Kingdoms arising on the now forsaken temples of worship. But no longer. In their final act of revenge, the Old Gods have unleashed a great Desolation upon the world. Farmlands turned to deserts, rivers to dust. The Great Crusade sent to slay the Imprisoned Gods once and for all, is all but vanished, and the human Kingdoms are in disarray. A lone Warrior approaches the Citadel, ancient prison of Gods. His objective is one: slay them all.
In Eldest Souls, the player will explore the vast, forgotten Citadel, in search of the Old Gods. The temple-prison will contain a great deal of NPC’s , quests and mysteries. Encounters with the Old Gods will be…deadly. With a fast-paced, exciting action combat, every instant counts. But fortune favors the bold, and defeating the Old Gods will grant the player powers beyond mortal comprehension.
Key Features:
- The Old Gods: Slaying Gods is no easy task. Prepare yourself to be overwhelmed by brutal, challenging encounters, in which Only the most unrelenting will make it through.

Horae is a roguelike RPG with an original combat system. ”Our goal is to offer a new take on the genre by deeply combining stories, beauty of graphics, and treasures through intense gameplay.
