Who wrote this comparison.
OverFuture, a Zaragoza company that develops games and simulators for clients, wrote this comparison. As an interested party, we leave ourselves out of the table and introduce ourselves separately, under ‘About us’. Nobody paid to appear, and every fact links to the studio’s own website. Data checked again on 10 November 2026.
How we scored each studio.
We started from the intent of someone commissioning a game. So only companies that offer advergames, serious games, gamification or development for other studios, and that have published at least one project, are included. Each one shows four or more facts on its website that we could open and check.
| Criterion | Weight | Source and scale |
|---|---|---|
| Games for clients | 25 | The company’s services page |
| Address in Madrid | 20 | Legal notice, privacy policy or contact page; 20 in the city of Madrid and 0 outside it |
| Track record | 20 | Stated or registration year: 20, 15, 10 or 5 points for 20 or more, 10 to 19, 5 to 9 or fewer years; 0 with no figure |
| Published games or projects | 20 | 20 for a game in a store or a project with its own page; 10 if projects are named without their own page; 0 with no examples |
For a game, the best portfolio is a title you can play or a case with a client. This criterion takes the place of the web portfolio we use in other comparisons. A tile on a shared page does not count as a project with its own page.
For the address we apply the strict city limit, as in our other city comparisons. Tied companies are listed alphabetically. Public reviews will be worth 15 points from January 2027, so today’s scores are out of 85.
Declaration of interest. OverFuture offers this same service, so it is neither ranked nor listed in the table. Last review, 10 November 2026.

Studio profiles.
Bionic Ape. An Unreal Engine specialist offering consulting, outsourcing and co-development. It says it started in 2015 as a group of freelancers and was incorporated as a company in 2022. We count 2015, the year the company itself gives as the start of Bionic Ape. The Prison, Denbora and Bion Clash each have a page of their own with a link to Steam. Its contact page gives an address in Madrid.
Globalzepp. A company that creates advergames for brands and claims more than 15 years of experience in the format, since 2007. Its portfolio includes an advergame with McDonald’s and Just Dance. Its registered office is on Avenida del Mayorazgo in Madrid.
Raised By Monsters. An Unreal Engine studio that helps other studios develop their ideas, with motion capture and cinematics. It publishes pages for game projects, such as El Conquis X Fortnite. It says it has been an Epic Games Authorized Service Partner since 2023, the earliest date it gives, so it scores 5 for track record. Its address is on Calle Oporto.
Game Strategies (Gamelearn). It produces training games and simulators for companies. Its legal notice gives its entry in the Madrid Commercial Register in 2007 and its office in Pozuelo de Alarcón, outside the city of Madrid. That is why it scores 0 for address. Its website speaks of 20 years of excellence, but it says it all began in 2007, so it scores 15 for track record. It publishes the JTI case, with more than 50 serious games.
Ludikong. A company focused on gamification and behaviour design. It shows cases for brands, such as Crazy Games, but groups them on one page without a page per case. Its company is registered in Brunete, outside the city of Madrid. Its home page counts more than 20 years playing, which we score as its stated track record.
How to choose a game studio in Madrid.
- Decide whether you need a full game, a game for your brand or a training simulator.
- Ask for a game of theirs that you can play, or a case with a named client.
- Get a quote that separates prototype, production and release.
- Put the ownership of the code and the art in writing.
- Ask who will maintain the game after launch and for how long.

Frequently asked questions.
Bionic Ape and Globalzepp, with 80 out of 85 points in the November 2026 review. They tie, so they are listed alphabetically.
Because its office is in Pozuelo de Alarcón, outside the city of Madrid. We apply the same city limit in every city comparison.
Because we also develop games for clients and compete with these companies. Our details are in the ‘About us’ box.
