We are a game studio with a social mission. We want to entertain kids and families while also changing the way people think about important issues like health and sustainability. Games are simply great tools for learning. We are targeting the entire family, from grandmother to grandchild, which creates a common playground for all family members. Groplay is a game changer. We bridge the gap between age groups; we learn kids about important issues, and we entertain. We are interested in doing good. Social responsibility is not just a central part in our games, but in every aspect of how we work. For instance, we have recruited people with disabilities and we have worked with MISA. Doing so is obvious to us. We are aiming to merge high-level entertainment with human issues to get kids to relate to problems in a playful way. If we can make it fun and accessible, we can increase interest in social issues among children. Further, we want to create a common playground for both children and their parents and grandparents. We are a multinational team. Some of us work from home, some in Stockholm, some in Poland and some in Hungary: we assume this makes us a virtual team. Despite this, we speak every day, and we have Monday meetings to update each other and share input. We recognize effort, and we celebrate when we reach milestones.
