Cranberry Production (originally: 4HEAD Studios ) was a video game development studio in Hanover , Germany, which made a name for itself with point-and-click adventures and business simulations.
The development studio was founded in Hanover in 1997 by Lars Martensen and Tobias Severin under the name AHEAD Entertainment Software GmbH (AG Hanover, HRB 56490). Externally, the company appeared under the name 4HEAD Studios. Martensen previously had a cooperation with Sunflowers , who produced and marketed the games Die Fugger and Die Fugger II , which he and Matthis Kriesell developed . In October 2007 4HEAD was bought by Dtp entertainment and renamed Cranberry Production. The first game under the new name was the adventure Mata Hari, which was released in November 2008. As a result, the studio made a name for itself with two successors to the successful adventure brand Black Mirror . In 2010, the Bremen dtp studio House of Tales was relocated to Hanover and merged with Cranberry Production, which meant the end of the traditional adventure producer. In 2012, shortly after the completion of the cranberry project Lost Chronicles of Zerzura , owner dtp announced the merger of the studio with the dtp headquarters in Hamburg and the resulting dissolution of the Hanover location. In 2013, the remaining Cranberry team, now based in Hamburg, was bought by the Frankfurt game developer Deck13 and renamed Deck13 Hamburg.
