Coffee Stain, the publisher known for titles like Goat Simulator and the upcoming strategy game Songs of Conquest (often described as a spiritual successor to Heroes of Might and Magic), has announced the closure of its mobile division, Coffee Stain Malmö, located in Sweden. The news was shared by Daniel Persson, the company's VP of Mobile, via LinkedIn.
