One Desk Studios

Hello from One Desk Studios

Gentle games for little explorers.

We're a tiny studio with one desk and a lot of animal friends. We make bright, happy games for young children, with no ads, no timers and no way to lose.

Meet Critter Pals Say hello
The Critter Pals app icon: an orange fish, a monkey and a pink piglet, all waving.

Play with more than 60 animal friends

Three worlds full of friends to play with: a sunny coral reef, a leafy jungle and a cozy farm. Tap anywhere and your little fish swims there, your monkey runs, leaps and climbs there, or your piglet trots there. Find a sparkle, say hello, and play.

Coming soon to the App Store and Google Play

Three worlds full of friends: the fish helps a whale brush its teeth, the piglet swims with a duck and her ducklings, and the monkey rides a hippo's fountain.
The fish rides a smiling manta ray.

The Reef

20 sea friends

Ride a manta ray, bounce up a staircase of glowing jellyfish, dance with the crab and help a whale brush its teeth.

A tiger cub in a crown juggles fruit with a toucan.

The Jungle

21 jungle friends

Juggle fruit with a toucan, ride the fountain from a hippo's snout, row your boat with the crocodile and bounce on a leaf all the way to space.

The piglet rides a pony and picks apples from a tree.

The Farm
