About Big Viking Games Big Viking Games is a profitable, self-funded live-service game studio based in Toronto. Since 2011, we’ve been building and operating virtual worlds with deep player-driven economies and long-term engagement at their core. Our flagship titles, YoWorld and FishWorld , have served millions of players over their lifetime. These are enduring products with loyal communities, evolving content systems, and rich in-game economies built around virtual goods and player-to-player interaction.

Increasingly, we are embracing AI-first workflows to scale production, accelerate iteration, and operate more efficiently.   The Role We’re hiring a Unity Content Artist (2D) with a Casino / Slots focus to support the development of a slot-based game experience within our broader product ecosystem. This is a hands-on production role focused on creating, preparing, and implementing themed content directly into Unity.
