According to Motherboard, the game’s developers want to keep their identities a secret at least until a winner has been declared. The developers also mentioned that they are a group of game developers that had a crazy idea for a game.
Gem Rose Accent’s inspiration for Montecrypto was the well-known “On the Trail of the Golden Owl” treasure hunt, a French treasure hunting book published in 1993, which to this day is still not yet solved.
