Independent Game Studio

Games That Teach.

Before You Need to Know.

Dragon Breath Games is an independent game studio built on one belief: the most important things in life shouldn't require a crash course at the worst possible moment.

Who We Are

We Design Games Worth Playing.

Whether they teach you something real or take you somewhere completely imaginary โ€” every Dragon Breath game is built to be fun first.

We believe the best way to learn something hard is to play your way through it. Not a tutorial. Not a worksheet. A game with stakes, decisions, and a little drama.

Founded in Seattle, Washington. Named after a dog.

Fun First

Every mechanic earns its place by being genuinely enjoyable to play.

Real Stakes

Games that mirror real decisions โ€” so the lessons actually stick.

Built with Care

Small studio, big attention to detail. Every component matters.

The Founder

Alex Milholland

Founder ยท Licensed Real Estate Agent ยท Marine Corps Veteran

Seattle, Washington

Alex Milholland is a licensed real estate agent with four years of experience helping buyers and sellers navigate one of the most complex transactions of their lives.

He'll also be the first to admit that even after years in real estate, he sometimes forgets which step comes first. So he built a game to help everyone remember โ€” buyers, sellers, and yes, himself too.

Dragon Breath Games is named after Missy โ€” his sweet, completely oblivious black lab whose breath is entirely responsible for this company existing.

The Mascot

Meet Missy

Missy, the Dragon Breath Games black lab mascot

Real black lab. Fluffy black hair. Big light brown eyes. Tongue always out. Absolutely no idea her breath could melt steel โ€” or inspire a game studio.
