Our Background
Our Journey
In late 2008, Stephen Smith and Jerry Grissett began bouncing game ideas off each other while playing Call of Duty: World at War. By April 2009, Stephen was diligently writing down various ideas. By the start of 2024, he had conceptualized an impressive list of over 200 game IPs, including 25 mobile titles, 12 AR/VR titles, and 205 console game titles. The only thing holding us back was funding.
​
In May 2020, WardogGaming LLC was officially founded. Stephen primarily used Angel Investment Network to seek the necessary funding. In May, a promising investor came forward, but it turned out to be a long-con scam, and some of our funds were stolen. As a result, Wardog Gaming became dormant. Stephen took a break from the investment fiasco to focus on conceptualizing more games and dealing with family health issues regarding his father.
​
Stephen's father's health was challenging over the next three years, with multiple hospital stays, a triple bypass, two neck surgery fusions, multiple vein surgeries for dialysis, and several complications.
​
In 2024, Stephen decided it was time to host a conference and investment meeting to gauge opinions on the games he wanted to create. On August 10th, 2024, we held our first game conference. Although over 150 people were slated to attend, most didn't show up. However, those who did were excited about the games and wished they were already available. During the conference, Jerry live-streamed the event, gaining over 6,000 viewers.
​
Both Stephen and Jerry are committed to making Wardog Gaming a household name. As gamers, they are dedicated to creating exciting and fun games for gamers, with entertainment as their main priority.
