Sorainen has advised Charlie Oscar, the strategy games development company, on matters related to the company's new studio in Vilnius. 

Charlie Oscar -- the maker of the "Gremlins, Inc." strategic game --- officially registered in Lithuania in early June, and founder Sergey Klimov and his team expect to move into their Vilnius office soon. Sorainen explains that Klimov is "a former head of the Russian Association of Developers and publishers of Game Industry and Interactive Technologies (RADIT) and a veteran of the game sector," and that he "has been involved in developing several hundred games."

The five-person Charlie Oscar team in Vilnius will act in concert with game developers from Stockholm, Kiev and Sevastopol. The “Gremlins, Inc.” game will be available in English, Russian, Polish, Czech, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Japanese and is expected to be released this year in Vilnius.  Sorainen provided comprehensive legal assistance with pre-start work, advised on business start-up issues, and is now consulting on issues related to taxes, migration, lease and other matters. The Sorainen team is led by Partner Algirdas Peksys, assisted by Senior Associate Saule Dagilyte.
