Split is an action-adventure board game hybrid available across Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC, macOS, and Android since 2016. The game blends casual puzzle mechanics with adventure elements in a compact indie package.

Double Fine announced departures of 23 staff members following the split, while Compulsion Games moved to seek new collaborative partnerships after being let go during the transition.
