Being part of the Myrkur team
Working at Myrkur has been an adventure on its own. It's both fun, challenging and it has helped me to grow in my work as an artist. The office atmosphere is relaxed and friendly but what I love the most is that even though we are eager to make the game, people still give time to crack jokes and spend time together as friends.

Having known of Myrkur for a long time before joining and having met some of their people in the past made working here like coming home to a second family. It's a super fun and funny atmosphere with talented and motivated people all around you. It's a genuinely enjoyable workplace with genuine and enjoyable people.
Hjalti Rafn
Gameplay Designer at Myrkur Games
I've been working at Myrkur Games from the get go. I've followed its journey from a startup to a fully fledged studio, and there's never a dull moment.
The work is challenging, fun and creative, and I've gotten to grow as an artist and individual among nerds/friends. I've gone through thick and thin with this company and I can honestly still to this day say that I've never been happier at a job.
