Vast Studios is a casual video game company founded in 2008 and headquartered in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. They are the developer of 3Tones, a match 3 game nominated for RealNetworks' Great Game Awards as well as the Nightfall Mysteries series.

The first publicly released game by Vast was "Hard Hittin’ Hockey" in 2007. Vast Studios has since gone out of business, and in 2014, they were acquired by ISIS Lab Corporation, now known as Tangelo Games Corp.
