The Team

Two Sisters, One Game

ZABADANI LLC was made by two sisters from Toronto who love insects and wanted to turn that into something fun to play.

Founders
Anna — Visual Designer

Anna Kowalski

Art & Design

Anna hand-draws every insect symbol and background in the game. The ant, the beetle, the butterfly, the spider — all her work. She also designs the seasonal themes and visual updates.

Kate — Community Lead

Kate Kowalski

Writing & Community

Kate writes everything on the site, manages player communication, and handles the business side. If you've read a word on this site, she wrote it.


Origin

How It Started

It started as a conversation about insects — which ones look the coolest, which ones would make good game characters. Anna sketched a few symbols, Kate mocked up a simple roulette, and they put it online to see if anyone would play.

People did. So they kept going — adding more symbols, polishing the art, building out the site. Still just the two of them, still working out of a small apartment.

Toronto Studio

Where We Work

A small studio in east Toronto. Anna's desk has a terrarium with leafcutter ants (she says it's for reference). Kate's side has a whiteboard full of content schedules and a stack of insect photography books.

No investors, no publisher. Just two people making a game they enjoy working on.
