Ice-Pick Lodge is waiting for cuts due to the financial failure of the "Pestilence"

Ice-Pick Lodge acknowledged that the remake of “Pestilence. Utopias” turned out to be a commercially unsuccessful project.

This was stated by the head of Ice-Pick Lodge Nikolay Dybovsky in an interview with DTF.

Things are not going well in his company right now. In the near future, the team will be reduced to 4-5 people. To improve things, they are going to return to the development of mobile games again.

The developers did not tell why, in their opinion, the game sold poorly. But they noted that during the development they faced numerous difficulties, including at the conceptual level.

Note that the game came out with a lot of bugs. In addition, a number of game mechanics were intentionally made uncomfortable for players.
