Cloud Clicker was founded in January 2013 by Henrike Lode, Niels Gamsgaard Frederiksen, and Giuseppe Enrico Franchi after graduating from the IT University of Copenhagen. Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, the studio brings together an international team from Denmark, Germany, the UK, and Romania — all academically trained in game development, design, and computer science.
The studio’s mission is to create high-quality, accessible games that go beyond entertainment — offering experiences that immerse, inspire, and challenge players. Cloud Clicker focuses on intuitive gameplay, strong storytelling, and a deep commitment to the educational value of interactive media.
The company’s most acclaimed project is Machineers — a groundbreaking educational puzzle game originally developed as a master’s thesis project at the IT University of Copenhagen. Designed to teach children the fundamentals of programming and logical thinking through play, Machineers explores the principles of stealth learning and educational technology in an engaging and playful format.
