About

We make the games where you run the show

Tidefall Interactive is an independent game studio founded in 2026 and based in Idaho, United States.

Our mission

Innovative, exciting tycoon games

We strive to build innovative and exciting tycoon and business management games. We want deep systems that are rewarding to master, choices that matter, and enough personality that every playthrough tells its own story.

Our first game, Box Office Mayhem: Theatre Tycoon, launched on Steam in July 2026. Next up is University Tower, a tower-building tycoon about running a university.

What we care about

How we build games

Depth that's fun

Systems with real depth that stay easy to learn, so "just one more week" always feels worth it.

A sense of humour

Running a business is stressful. Our games don't take it too seriously.

Built with players

We listen. Feedback from Discord and Steam directly shapes what we build next.
