About

we specialize in the development of Applied Games and LeadGames—interactive solutions designed not only for entertainment but also for education, engagement, and data collection. Our approach is ideal for European collaborative projects focused on the promotion and valorization of cultural heritage.

Through tailored gamified experiences, we can transform complex cultural narratives into accessible, meaningful, and playful interactions for a wide range of audiences. Whether it's raising awareness of local traditions, showcasing intangible heritage, or fostering a deeper connection to historical assets, our games are designed to educate, engage, and inspire.

Our team has extensive experience collaborating on European-funded projects, bringing together creativity, technology, and cultural expertise to deliver cross-sector, cross-border initiatives. We work closely with institutions, museums, universities, and cultural organizations to co-create interactive tools that align with EU policy goals, including audience development, inclusion, innovation, and digital transformation in the cultural sector.

With HTML5-based solutions compatible across multiple devices, we ensure that our games are widely accessible and easily integrated into communication, educational or outreach strategies. From interactive storytelling to immersive minigames for exhibitions, our formats are flexible, scalable, and grounded in real-world impact.
