About usThe company
astragon Entertainment (founded in 1998) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Team17 Group PLC, and one of the leading German games publishers. Since 2023, German game development studio Independent Arts Software has become a part of astragon Entertainment. As a result, we are now actively involved as developers in the creation of our simulation brands. Our main focus is on developing and publishing sophisticated working simulation games that feature non-violent cooperative gameplay in highly detailed, technical and realistic game environments. Since 2019 we are based in Düsseldorf, the state capital of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany’s most populous federal state. In addition to our modern, open-plan office with numerous flexible workspaces as well as small and large meeting rooms that can be used for group work and discussions, or concentrated, creative solo work, our employees enjoy a flexible home office solution. This option serves as an employee and family-friendly alternative for our team members. We regularly welcome students for internships in various departments, and have also been offering vocational training for clerk for audiovisual media since 2020. astragon Entertainment is a member of “game - The German Games Industry Association e.V.” and “games.nrw e.V.”.
The people
The astragon Entertainment team consists of about 60 creative minds, who especially value the company’s informal atmosphere, its flat hierarchies and the freedom to achieve one's own goals. Advanced training opportunities ensure necessary professionalization and open up new career perspectives within the company. For us team spirit is not only important when working on our games - regular events such as trade fairs, summer festivals, Christmas parties, workshops and charity events such as the RhineCleanUp are a lot of fun and strengthen our sense of belonging. Speaking of social commitment: Not only do we make a donation to a project dear to our hearts every year in the run-up to Christmas, we also supported the charity online format "Line 42 - The Call-In-Show" of the non-profit association Helden e.V., which campaigned against racism, (cyber)mobbing and for more civil courage in society in 2021. Furthermore, as part of the “Girls´ Day” and Boys´ Day” initiatives, we offer the opportunity for students to gain insights into the world of a game publisher. In addition, we are signatories to the joint declaration of the German games industry for more diversity under the slogan "Hier spielt Vielfalt #TeamDiversity".
The brands
astragon Entertainment’s internationally well-known IPs include Construction Simulator, Bus Simulator, Police Simulator: Patrol Officers and Firefighting Simulator. We attach particular importance to cooperative, non-violent gameplay, detailed and above all realistic game environments as well as long-standing brand cooperations with industry partners from all over the world, which allow us to realistically transfer real-life vehicles and machines into virtual worlds. We are addressing a broad target group of players of all genders and ages and offer them family-friendly entertainment around the fascination of technology. The distribution of high-quality licensed and distribution products such as Farming Simulator and SnowRunner and third-party titles such as Railroads Online and Abriss - build to destroy complete our interesting product range. Our games are available worldwide on various platforms such as consoles, smartphones, tablets and PCs.
