Vast Studios is a casual video game company founded in 2008 and headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.[1] They are the developer of 3Tones, a match 3 game nominated for RealNetworks' Great Game Awards[2] as well as the Nightfall Mysteries series. The studio also partnered with National Geographic to make a point-and-click style game based around the Salem Witch Trials called “Lost Chronicles: Salem” which was released December 4th, 2010.[3] The first publicly released game by Vast was "Hard Hittin’ Hockey" in 2007. Vast Studios has since gone out of business, and in 2014, they were acquired by ISIS Lab Corporation,[4][5] now known as Tangelo Games Corp.[6]

The company produced primarily puzzle and time management games; however, recent titles involved hidden object games. Their games are distributed via digital download portals such as Big Fish Games.[7] Their games have been reviewed at Gamezebo.[8]
