In partnership with the State Archaeological Collection, we created The Snake Game to celebrate its grand reopening in 2024. Our mission: to make archaeology exciting and accessible, especially for younger generations.
The result is an immersive Augmented Reality adventure with a playtime of around 80 minutes—blending the warm, nostalgic charm of early 2000s gaming with a lighthearted sense of humor.
The Game
AR snake ‘Sisssi’ leads you through the exhibition along nine stops. At each stop there are historical puzzles and tasks to solve. For example, the aim is to prevent an outbreak of plague, decipher cryptic inscriptions on a sacred stone or rebuild a destroyed column. Two other characters in the form of historical masks support the visitors.
Concept & Production
Following the official kick-off in July 2023, we entered a multi-month concept phase. In close collaboration with ASM, we defined the key messages and transformed them into a fully developed script. From there, we moved on to the technical implementation in Unity. At the same time, together with our partner Soundgarden, we selected the right voice talents and organized professional direction—both on-site and remotely.
The result: a captivating Augmented Reality game with a total playtime of around 80 minutes—infused with the warm, nostalgic aesthetics of early 2000s gaming and refined with a subtle touch of humor.
The game is running splendidly and the response has been overwhelmingly positive.
