imaginarylab is an independent Italian game studio founded in 2015 by Ciro Camera, built around a simple mission: bring the point-and-click adventure genre into the modern era without losing what made it great in the first place. The studio's debut, Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town, launched in 2020 to a warm critical reception and found its way onto Steam, GOG, Switch, Xbox, and PlayStation over the following two years.
Their second title, Whirlight - No Time To Trip, released on Steam in May 2026 with console versions to follow. A time-travel comedy adventure following inventor Hector and his partner Margaret through the fictional town of Verice Bay, Whirlight draws clear inspiration from genre classics like Day of the Tentacle, Sam & Max, and Monkey Island, while carving out its own distinct visual identity. The game picked up a Best Game Narrative win at the Chainsaw Game and Music Festival, a spot in PAX Rising 2025, and a Top 5 finish in IndieDB's Player's Choice Best Upcoming Indie Games before it even launched.
Based in Verona, imaginarylab remains a small, tightly-knit team that leans on its community throughout development, shaping puzzles, dialogue, and pacing based on direct feedback from demo players. It's a studio that proves you don't need a massive budget to make a game with real craft and personality behind it.
