We build immersive worlds you can lose yourself in - where characters feel real, relationships change dynamically over time, and your actions are remembered. Our flagship game Of Moss & Moonlight is underpinned by Helix Live Brain™, our living world intelligence layer, and guided by the Five + Five Framework for Responsible AI in Games.
Of Moss & Moonlight
Of Moss & Moonlight is a character-driven living world RPG set in the magical village of Bramble Hollow.
The residents of the Hollow don’t wait nicely for your attention. They might roast you, they might ghost you.
This is a world that reacts to who you are and how you play - drawing you in, pushing back, and occasionally biting.
What you do, what you say, and the choices you make affect relationships, events, and how the world and its characters respond.

To make worlds like Of Moss & Moonlight possible, we also build the systems underneath them. Helix Live Brain™ is our living-world intelligence layer, designed for emotionally responsive characters and dynamic interaction across persistent game worlds.
Helix enables worlds that feel autonomous, without ever becoming uncontrolled.
View Helix Capabilities → The FIVE + FIVE Framework and Responsible AI Practice
Creating living worlds has real implications. Our initial intention to tell a rich, engaging story quickly exposed questions of safety, consent, and human impact that needed to be established from the outset.
Our Responsible AI approach is structured as a ten-part system: Sections 1–5 present the Five + Five framework as a shared model for the industry, and Sections 6–10 show how we apply it in practice through Helix and Of Moss & Moonlight.

Human Impact Design Principles Shared Stewardship
A shared way to think about these challenges - helping teams understand human impact, surface trade-offs early, and make decisions before they’re shipped.
