Buried Giant Studios was founded in 2026 by Cole Wehrle, Kyle Ferrin, Drew Wehrle, and Ted Caya. The company sprang from a simple desire to keep making the sorts of games that we had spent nearly a decade working on and to continue to support both Oath and Arcs. It also offered Cole and Drew a way to integrate Wehrlegig Games into a new and larger enterprise while preserving that company’s identity as an independent design studio.

Our mission is simple. We want to continue making beautiful, interactive games with expressive systems, emergent gameplay, and player-centered storytelling. We believe that the best games are built slowly and with the care and attention of a full-time staff.

Makers of Arcs, Oath, Pax Pamir, John Company, and Molly House.
