Independent Game Laboratory
HollowLabs
Games are memories.
And the best memories are made together.
Current Experiment
Dwellers of War
Dwellers of War is the current game in development at HollowLabs. It grows from the same roots that shaped the studio: custom maps, hero defenses, tower defenses, cooperative play, strategic depth, and mechanics that create memorable stories between players.
About HollowLabs
Built From Maps, Mods, and Experiments
Raised by the modding communities of the late 90s and early 2000s, HollowLabs creates games built around meaningful systems, immersive worlds, and shared experiences.
Mechanics and atmosphere belong together. Players create their own stories. Games are more than mechanics.

Feedback Is Part of the Process
Many of the earliest HollowLabs creations existed because friends were willing to play them, test them, break them, and come back for one more round.
