3d6 Games was an American video game developer founded by William S. Schmitt[1] and Troy Sheets.

The studio was initially active between 1999 and 2002, during which period it created games exclusively for the Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance.[2][3] The company developed original games based on properties such as Tetris Worlds (IP by Blue Planet Software), The Revenge of Shinobi (IP by Sega)[4][5] and Altered Beast: Guardian of the Realms (also original IP by Sega).[6][7]

Two internal projects from the studio, Rocket Dog! and Slider, were never completed.[8] In 2012 3d6 Games was relaunched as developer for mobile games for iOS, Android en Windows 8. However, the company only released one game (Sums Academy for iOS)[9] after the relaunch, and has not been active since 2013.[10]
