ABOUT TROLLHÄTTAN
Trollhättan is a medium-sized city that is constantly growing with a rich university life, new innovative companies and expanding residential areas. Imagine your progress of approx. 4 hours gameplay in Simcity 3. Trollhättan is small enough for folks to have a pleasing dialect, but big enough to hold many exciting restaurants, bars and clubs with interesting artists/bands, cafes, cinemas and shops with everything you can think of. As well as a travel center with good connections, eg; 30 minutes train to Gothenburg and our own city airport with 45 minutes to Stockholm.
Easy Trigger Games is located in the center of Trollhättan. We have all the restaurants and the beautiful canal system with its green surroundings nearby. It never gets boring here. We try our best to do some fun stuff now and then, like playing games, go fishing or hunting ice bears with over-sized rifles. We’re looking forward to having you onboard and you being part of shaping the studio as we’re constantly growing and evolving.
We recommend that you apply asap; selection and interviews are held continuously. Send your application with a resumé provided with links to portfolios or showreels, and a personal letter in English.
