Company profile
researched Aug 2026Mino Games is a games company that builds character-driven, collection-oriented franchises for mobile and, more recently, PC. Its portfolio includes MinoMonsters and MinoMonsters 2, Cat Game, Dog Game, and Dimensionals, described as its first RPG-style PC title. The company describes more than 3,000 characters across its franchises, 45 million players across 150 countries and over 60 million worldwide downloads.
The studio was founded in 2011 by Josh Buckley and Sash Mackinnon and went through Y Combinator; Y Combinator lists the batch as Winter 2011 while the company's own timeline references YC Summer 2011. PocketGamer.biz profiles the company as a San Francisco-based mobile games studio focused on free-to-play titles for smartphones and tablets, while the company's history notes a move of its head office to Montreal during Cat Game development and a later shift to fully remote operation with more than 80 employees.
More recently Mino Games has extended into blockchain-based gaming with Dimensionals: Heroes of the Multiverse, an RPG built around NFT characters and in-game items, using a "free-to-own" model and an intended community-led ecosystem.
