Fairytale is the game that combines a classic storybook mood and adventure game feeling with a new and fresh perspective on interactive products for children. Both young boys and girls today are used to computers and computer games and have much more adept communicative skills than most developers of children’s games seem to believe. Also, we think that a lot of games aimed at children, girls in particular, have a tendency to underestimate their target group.
Fairytale was awarded the Almedalen Library Award and the Jade Project Award at Gotland Game Awards 2008, and they won the Pwnage Award at Gotland Game Awards 2007.

Roskilde was a joint collaboration with the Roskilde music festival. A vertical slice was produced but the game was never completed. The team won Best Presentation at the Gotland Game Awards 2007, but we have no other information in our archives about the project. Did you work on this game? Please get in touch with Ulf to complete this post.
