5 Years of Paintbucket

The Darkest Files

The Darkest Files is a historical investigation and courtroom game based on true crimes during the Second World War. Investigate cold cases, search for clues, interrogate witnesses, immerse yourself in the crimes and defend your case in court to bring the perpetrators to justice.

Celebrating 5 Years of impactful gaming with Paintbucket Games! 🎊 Founded in 2018 by Jörg Friedrich and Sebastian St. Schulz, our studio Paintbucket Games had its 5th birthday on April 24th and won the DCP award "Studio of the Year'' this May. Last week we celebrated with a cozy get-together in Berlin. Colleagues, former colleagues, and friends gathered to commemorate this milestone. We had such a good time and are thankful for our studio's remarkable journey and the positive impact our historical and political games have made in the gaming industry. 🧡 We were reminiscing about our great time together and our beginnings with our debut game, "Through the Darkest of Times", which secured numerous awards in 2020. We are also proud to be such an inclusive team that places great value on its members and on healthy and sustainable growth! These values we represent are reflected in the games we make, like in our current project "The Darkest Files".
