History

Before Carsten Fichtelmann founded Daedalic Entertainment GmbH in 2007, he had been the marketing director and head of product management at Hamburg-based publisher DTP Entertainment for six years. Daedalic published their first game on 5 June 2008, which was a humorous adventure game called Edna & Harvey: The Breakout, which emerged from a thesis by the Creative Director Jan Müller-Michaelis. It has sold very well and received numerous major awards.

Shortly afterwards, the adventure game 1½ Knights – In Search of the Ravishing Princess Herzelinde was published, named after the same film. On 28 August 2009, the adventure game The Whispered World followed and the adventure title A New Beginning, which focuses on climate change, was published on 8 October 2010. In 2011, the sequel to Edna & Harvey: The Breakout was released with the title Harvey’s New Eyes. A year later, a new adventure named Deponia was released to the market, which received several awards as well.

In May 2014, German publisher Bastei Lübbe acquired a majority share of 51% in Daedalic Entertainment.
