About Lockwood

Founded in Nottingham in 2009 by Halli Thor Bjornsson and Joel Kemp, Lockwood started out building content for Sony PlayStation Home before launching Avakin Life in 2013. Today we’re one of Europe’s leading social game developers: a multi-award-winning studio whose flagship world has passed 500 million downloads and is played on iOS, Android and Steam.

While our headquarters are based in Nottingham, ours is a global company – with offices in Newcastle, Lisbon and Vilnius, as well as key personnel in South America, the United States and beyond.

If you’re an expert in your field and can help us evolve further, we’d love to hear from you.
