ABOUT US

The making of our storytelling platform

Our story

Fictioneers was born as an R&D project in 2018 to explore the audiences of the future. Funded by UK Research & Innovation, it was a collaboration between creative storytellers, game designers and technologists.

When designing such an innovative real-time experience, Fictioneers realised a tool didn’t exist that enabled creative teams to design real-time stories, timelines and activities whilst integrating various supporting transmedia. So we built a bespoke software platform to power the experience: the Fictioneers platform.

How to work with us

When designing such an innovative real-time experience, Fictioneers realised a tool didn’t exist that enabled creative teams to design real-time stories, timelines and activities whilst integrating various supporting transmedia. So we built a bespoke software platform to power the experience: the Fictioneers platform.


Now, in 2022, the platform has become a cloud-based storytelling engine that creates personalised stories across media and devices, dynamically changing based on the choices the player makes, their location, and time. It enables these transmedia stories for retail, events, entertainment companies and visitor attractions.  We are now fully part of the AKQA family and collaborate with the studios to bring these stories to life.
