🌿 This April, Art of Puzzles is joining the Green Game Jam 2025! It's a global movement by Playing for the Planet where game studios around the world create special in-game events to support nature and raise awareness about the importance of protecting our planet. Our event is a collaboration with Dots.eco — and for every puzzle you complete, you're helping preserve nature reserves across the globe. Play with purpose. Do good. Feel great. 💚 #GreenGameJam2025 #PlayingForThePlanet #GamesForGood #DotsEco #ZiMAD

This is our first time participating in the Green Game Jam — and we're very proud! Supporting nature together with Playing for the Planet and fellow studios around the world 💚

🌳 Play for the Planet: The New Earth Month Collection Is Live in Art of Puzzles! In celebration of Earth Month, we’ve partnered once again with Dots.eco — an environmental project that transforms in-game actions into real-world impact. Each puzzle in the new Earth Month collection is a small step toward wildlife conservation. How it works: 🧩 Collect vibrant puzzles featuring breathtaking protected areas around the world. 🧩 Support nature conservation and spread the word to your friends. 🧩 Earn a unique in-game reward—a badge of your contribution that everyone can see! This time, we want to remind you: even something as small as solving a few puzzles can become part of a much bigger cause. The more players who join, the more natural spaces we can protect — together. Join the global movement — play and protect the planet with us! Link in comments.

It’s rarely in the spotlight, but what’s at the heart of every game studio? Communication. Our Chief Communications Officer, Anastasia Zaiceva 🔜 GDC, San Francisco, sat down with David Caballero at DevGAMM in Gdańsk to talk all about it. In the interview, she discusses how communication in game development has evolved over the past decade, how PR shapes how games are perceived, and why comms is about much more than just press releases and announcements. Watch the full video on Gamereactor— especially if you're into communication in any field. Subtitles included. Link in comments!

🌿 Games Change the World   The gaming industry is more than just entertainment — it’s a powerful force for positive change. We create worlds that inspire, unite, and support people. But what if games also became a driving force for good initiatives?    At ZiMAD, we believe that games can do good. That's why we support environmental and charitable projects, partner with foundations, and create games that make a difference. And that's just the beginning!   What else can we — developers, publishers, and players — do?  • Support environmental and charitable causes.  • Make gaming more accessible and inclusive.  • Use technology that minimizes harm to the planet.  • Create projects that inspire real-world good deeds.    Games already bring people together, teach new skills, and even support mental health. What do you think is the most important step forward? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
