About Pretty Simple
Pretty Simple is a game developer best known for the Criminal Case series, a lineup of narrative-driven hidden-object detective games first launched in the early 2010s. Based around episodic cases, investigation mechanics and a steady stream of themed updates, the studio built one of the more recognizable mobile mystery franchises and expanded it into several standalone chapters—Pacific Bay, Supernatural, Mysteries, The Conspiracy and Save the World!—that explore different tones and settings while keeping the core investigative loop intact.
Alongside the Criminal Case universe, Pretty Simple publishes Sorcery School, a lighter, fantasy-themed title that showcases the studio’s interest in character-driven stories and accessible puzzles. The team focuses on long-term player engagement through story arcs, recurring events and social mechanics that encourage community play and repeat visits. Their catalogue on this site lists seven apps, reflecting both the breadth of the Criminal Case series and the studio’s willingness to experiment with adjacent genres.
Pretty Simple maintains direct support and information channels—email at [email protected] and a website at https://www.sorcery.school/—and continues to support legacy players while introducing new content. While their work centers on mobile gaming, their persistent updates and series structure show a clear commitment to ongoing narrative and feature development rather than one-off releases.
