• Moves with courage and ownership: You make bold calls when it matters, and you stand by them with accountability.

Trailmix was founded to make a positive impact on our players, our community, and our colleagues. We're committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone can flourish and feel seen.

We believe it's vital that players see themselves represented in the games they play; and in Love & Pies, we celebrate the beautiful diversity of life. The stories, characters, and relationships in our games reflect the people we are and the people we love.

We're always excited to welcome more people who share our passion for designing games that truly include everyone.
