Hit Web Game Studio Behind ‘Smash Karts’ Exclusively Brings Latest Title To Poki’s 100 Million Players
Web-first game studio Tall Team exclusively releases new title ‘Obby Roads’ to Poki's global player base
Web gaming platform Poki today announces a new collaboration with Tall Team, the independent studio behind the web gaming hit Smash Karts, to bring their latest release exclusively to Poki.com.
By launching on Poki.com, Obby Roads will be immediately playable to more than 100 million Poki gamers across 120 countries, giving the game instant global reach. Poki.com will be the exclusive web gaming platform for players to experience the game, coupled with the game’s existing version on https://obbyroads.io/.
Tall Team’s previous success, Smash Karts, is currently a top 10 web game, boasting over 4 million monthly active players. Obby Roads takes the familiar and popular “obby” (obstacle course) genre and elevates it with Tall Team’s signature creative gameplay mechanics, designed for long-term player appeal and multiplayer competition. With Poki’s player account feature, game progression will be saved within the browser; as players customise their vehicle and character. The title follows Tall Team’s strategy of prioritizing creativity and lasting success, a model proven by the continued performance of Smash Karts five years after its launch.
Tall Team, a web-first game studio established in 2017 and based in Sligo, on the west coast of Ireland, is steered by industry veterans who previously worked on major early mobile hits at PopCap Games, including Bejeweled, Plants vs. Zombies, and Peggle. The success story of Smash Karts reflects how small development teams can take advantage of web gaming’s immense, engaged player base to build profitable self-funded game studios.
As an independent studio with a team of eight, Tall Team has a proven ability to create and scale web hits like Smash Karts that maintain high daily players and strong community loyalty. With the launch of Obby Roads, we are proud to see that established developers are trusting Poki to provide the necessary scale and platform support for their newest titles.
We are delighted to announce the release of Obby Roads on Poki. Having collaborated with Poki for many years, we have huge confidence in their team. Our initial discussions about Obby Roads quickly revealed that they shared our vision for the game’s big potential on their platform. We have massive plans for Obby Roads and are confident that Poki is the ideal partner to help us grow this game into one of the biggest on the web.
Poki is the number one web gaming platform in over 120 countries globally, providing a safe and non-intrusive place to play. In November 2025, Poki announced the arrival of SYBO Games’ Subway Surfers Match and Blast to the platform. Obby Roads now joins more than 1,500 high-quality curated games on Poki and is available to play at poki.com/en/g/obby-roads.
