While our game “Blossoms” is our product, our mission is to pay it forward and use our resources to bring these skill building workshops to more isolated rural communities in the northwest to help ease some of the loneliness that school aged children and young adults might feel. 

An independent production studio based in Derry, Northern Ireland, founded in 2025.

Gamifying the ‘The Take five initiative’.

Why gaming? We wanted a way to entangle both learning and fun so we’ve created a story based game to enable players to connect to, invest in and be immersed in helping the characters develop their social skills so that the players will also have the confidence to develop their own valuable relationships in real life.

As students prepare for freshers’ week, new research commissioned by the Government has found that while loneliness is experienced by almost all students (92%), nearly half (43%) worry they would be judged if they admitted to feeling lonely.

Public consensus is important to use when crafting our game about loneliness. We want to make a game for you and a part of that is hearing your voice.

We would appreciate it if you could complete this five minute survey to help us with our research & development.
