Serious Games
I don’t just write entertainment - I write edutainment too! Below you can learn a little more about some of the serious games I’ve written and sometimes designed.
The Way of St Hild
Interactive educational app
An app to bring to life the pilgrimage of St Hild. Videos and other content can be unlocked through interacting with augmented reality markers and GPS locations. Working with developers Fish in a Bottle, I scripted the videos and spoken content.
The app is available to download from the app store.
China IPR SME Helpdesk
Business simulator
This is serious game aimed at small business owners, intended to be used as an aid to learn about the various pitfalls of taking their business to China. The game focuses mainly on intellectual property rights, and my part was to research to assist design and write flavour text.
The game can be played here:

Jaguar Land Rover
Global Conduct
A duo of serious games for internal use to educate employees about best practices when conducting business in different cultures, specifically Saudi Arabia and Brazil. This project involved a hefty amount of research into cultural customs and differences, which was then crafted into a believable narrative with a range of outcomes, dependent upon the player's choices.
Unfortunately, this game isn’t available to play online, due to client confidentiality.
