Mobile Growth Manager

About Us

At Grug’s Lair we are building a new kind of interactive sports entertainment: a persistent digital world where sports fandom becomes playable, not passive watching.

With the launch of Blob Arena, our first interactive sports title, we are transforming real sports IP into live mobile digital arenas shaped by real athletes, teams and communities. Fans don’t just watch. They step in, compete and connect.

Every action fuels a dynamic ecosystem that drives value back to the people who power it: the fans, the athletes and the rights-holders.

Our goal is to transform real sports IP (athletes, leagues, teams) into modular and playable digital spaces that are:

• Participatory not passive
• Permanent and interoperable
• Built to reward engagement directly

Blob Arena is live. Now we are focused on scaling intelligently and building a strong, sustainable revenue engine. This is the evolution of sports entertainment. If you believe digital worlds should be owned, not rented and that fandom should be interactive, we want you with us.
