Red Thread Games (RTG) was founded in September 2012 by Ragnar Tørnquist, creator of The Longest Journey and Dreamfall sagas, and The Secret World and Anarchy Online universes.[1]
On 8 February 2013, a Kickstarter campaign was launched for Dreamfall Chapters, a sequel to Dreamfall: The Longest Journey, which closed at USD$1,538,425, almost doubling their goal of $850,000,[2] and later receiving further funding from the Norwegian Film Institute.[3] On 30 October, RTG announced that they had begun working on a new game titled Draugen, a first-person survival horror set in the 1920s Norway.[4] The game was later released on 30 May 2019 to average reviews from critics on the review aggregation site Metacritic.[5]
Since 2016, the company has been working on Svalbard, a self-described "polar-punk role-playing game" taking place on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard for which the game is named.[6]
In 2023, the company began working on the untitled Project M, an action-adventure role-playing game.[7]
On 20 August 2024, the company released Dustborn, a story-driven action-adventure game. Dustborn received average reviews from critics on Metacritic.[8]
In 2025, the company announced Hello Sunshine, a survival role-playing game set in a post-apocalyptic world.[9]
