« Syn » means « with » in old Greek, and « storia » stands for story. So the literal meaning of our name is « with stories ».

The Story

Synstoria was founded in 2020 by Ayael to produce games with a very strong narrative bent. Above all, we want to tell beautiful stories with strong and interesting characters (especially female ones).

Fiction is always a reflection of reality, just seen from a different angle. That's why all our games, even if they are first and foremost meant to be entertaining, take a critical look at society, and endeavour to turn the spotlight on certain minorities that are not represented enough in fiction.

Another theme that is close to our hearts is love, in all its forms, but especially through the prism of romance. After all, we are hopeless romantics!

The People
