Breaking Bad:
Criminal Elements

An entertaining management strategy game with immaculate graphics and hundreds of missions that you'll complete little by little. A fun title that'll particularly tickle anyone who loved the popular TV show.
Breaking Bad: Criminal Elements is a management strategy where you build your own illegal drug ring, with the help of two business legends: Walter White and Jesse Pinkman.
About the game:
The game runs even on low-end smartphones, thanks to smart optimization on the Unity engine and balanced graphics (stylized design instead of heavy 3D models).
Optimization for mobile devices:
The project was developed in about one year, which is quite fast for this genre and such a complex license. The team managed to launch the game before the hype around Better Call Saul faded (the final season aired in 2022).
Rapid release under limited resources:
As a result, the team managed to create a high-quality project that meets the requirements of fans and license holders, while meeting the limited deadline and budget.
