FAQ: “The Gate“ and Spicy Horse’s F2P Mobile Games

Lots of fans ask various questions about various things... Spicy Horse released 10 games over the course of ten years. “Grimm“ and “Alice: Madness Returns“ many of you know. But after AMR the studio went on to produce a series of Multiplayer F2P Games for mobile (and web). Among those were “Bighead Bash“ “Akaneiro“ “The Gate“ “Crazy Fairies“ “Heroes of Night“ “Critter Acadamy“ “Chains of Darkness“ and more. A skeleton team continued to support the online operation of those games when the studio ceased development of new titles in 2017. But in early 2019 that support was also halted for a variety of reasons - lots code, lost people, etc. Many players of those online games continue to wonder, “What happened?“ And want to know if games such as “The Gate“ will ever be seen again. In this FAQ we explain what happened and what comes next.
