Cipher Cities
CIPHER CITIES is an authoring tool that allows anybody, anywhere to create, share and play location-based games. At its core, Cipher Cities is a game builder, with social networking and content distribution scaffolded around it to encourage content creation. Cipher Cities invites people to see their environment as a muse, inspiring opportunities for game design and game play. The game builder provides users with a simple storyboard process for building, editing and distributing games. Cipher games can be authored to suit a wide range of game types, from simple orientation games and question and answer quizzes to narrative rich investigative and code breaking challenges.
Every game is instantly accessible on mobile phones to be played exclusively by a group of friends, or openly available for anyone anywhere to access, depending on the game designers wishes. We have also designed mobile versions of Cipher Cities.
