What kind of games would this work best for? Do they need to be upcoming?Lore management and documentation aren’t limited to a specific genre or size of game - they can all benefit from it in different ways. Some titles might need strong narrative-focused documentation while others could use more robust quest outlines, itemization and gameplay guides. We stay flexible and adaptable to meet those needs, and can work with teams early in development or closer to launch. We work with existing titles as well; whether you’re developing a new game in an existing IP, adding fresh content, remaking an older title, branching the franchise out into new multimedia, or even just want to archive your backlog for preservation - we can help with that!

Which platforms do you work with?If you're providing a game build as part of the documentation process, we can work with most major platforms (console, PC, Mac, Mobile). We are not currently set up for VR builds, though we're still happy to discuss how we can help with knowledge management on VR titles. When building wikis, we utilize Notion internally for studios and Fandom.com for the public.
