A Journey Through Gaming History
Start in the 80s

Create Games Your Way
The decisions you make during development truly matter. Decide which areas to focus on. Does your game need more gameplay or should you focus on quests? These decisions will greatly impact the success of your game.
Grow Your Company
Once you’ve released a few games, you can move into your own office and build a world-class development team. Hire staff, train them, and unlock new options.
Make Larger, More Complex Games
With experience and a strong team, you can release larger, more complex games. These bring new challenges, and you'll need to manage your team well to deliver hit games.

Celebrate the Spring by Draining Yuplay’s Profit
Spring time always comes with a sense of freshness and revitalization, so we decided to take a risk make a special storewide promotion that would absolutely kill our profit (and probably get our boss angry). All you have to do to participate is make an order of at least 20€ between 17.03.2026 15:00 CET and 23.03.2026 15:00 CET, and you will get a FREE game coming straight out of our pockets…
Even though Friday the 13th is widely considered as an unlucky date, we at YUPLAY are trying to flip the script for that and turn it into a lucky day for you and this time is not an exception to the rule! We are delighted to announce our FRIDAY 13TH promo and you should absolutely read on the article in order to find out how to best take advantage of this campaign and turn your luck in the right direction for the occasion…
