About

Made by a nurse

Every Loyal4 game starts with real nursing work: call lights, neuro checks, admissions, the coffee run. The goal is games that play fast and still feel true to the floor.

Shift Survivors started on a hospital floor as something for staff to play on break, and grew into the studio's first game.
