Full analysis
Overview
thatgamecompany.com is the corporate website of a long-running game studio, presenting its games, studio history, team, news, careers, and privacy information to support the development, publishing, and promotion of interactive entertainment.
Scam/Impersonation Risk
No identity contradiction, phishing indicator, impersonation signal, or confirmed abuse finding was observed. The homepage consistently identifies thatgamecompany as a game studio and presents named titles including Sky, Journey, Flower, and Flow, alongside company history, team, careers, news, and privacy content. Its established domain history, strong traffic footprint, clean external reputation, and coherent page content converge on a legitimate corporate identity.
- The homepage identifies the business as a game studio dedicated to interactive entertainment and lists its games, history, team, careers, news, and privacy information.
- The domain was registered in 2006 and is approximately 20.28 years old.
- Archive coverage records 5,000 snapshots spanning 2006–2024, with 19 years tracked.
- External checks recorded zero malicious and zero suspicious detections, with no blacklist or phishing finding.
Regulatory Verification Notes
The site presents corporate, employment, product, and privacy information rather than financial or regulated-service offerings. No financial license or registration claim is presented on the supplied pages; this is a limited disclosure point for formal corporate verification, not evidence of deception. The available third-party broker comparison produced no match and should be treated only as contextual reputation information.
- The homepage and About pages provide company-purpose, history, and team information.
- The Careers pages describe recruitment and studio activity, while the Privacy page provides a formal data-handling notice.
- Hosted on AS13335 (Cloudflare); the registrar is Cloudflare, Inc.
- TLS certificate issued by YE2 with DV validation, valid to 2026-10-24.
What to Verify Next
For procurement, partnership, or material commercial engagement, confirm the contracting legal entity and applicable terms through the site’s About, Privacy, and commercial transaction materials, and independently confirm any jurisdiction-specific corporate or consumer requirements through the relevant official registry.
- The About and Our History pages provide the primary identity and organizational context.
- The Privacy page supplies the site’s formal data-protection disclosure.
- The Games and News pages identify the products and ongoing studio activity.
Summary Verdict
The website is a legitimate, established, high-trust corporate presence with a clean and internally consistent risk posture. Normal interaction, including account login and standard use, is appropriate.
Infrastructure Integrity
Cloudflare CDN and WAF protection front the website, and all observed addresses were CDN edge servers rather than identified origin candidates. This reduces direct exposure of the hosting environment and is a mitigating control, but infrastructure protection alone is not proof of legitimacy.
Closing Assessment
The site is suitable for normal use, with formal corporate verification appropriate for high-value institutional engagements.

About this assessment
A trust score summarises the evidence TrustSniffer could collect about thatgamecompany.com at assessment time. It is a starting point for your own judgement, not a guarantee: a high score means the signals were consistent with a legitimately operated site, a low or critical score means several risk patterns were present.
TrustSniffer assesses a website from the evidence it can collect at a point in time: domain registration and age, hosting and certificate, the content the site served, and third-party reputation feeds. A score is a summary of that evidence, not a guarantee and not a legal finding. There is no human rating and no user review in it. A site can change after it is assessed.
