PUGMIRE (By Pugsteady and Onyx Path)
Dogs have inherited the world, building the kingdom of Pugmire untold centuries after the Ages of Man are over. Pugmire is a world that juxtaposes the tropes of high fantasy with our relationship with domestic dogs. The main characters are pioneers that explore lost ruins in search of relics, knowledge, and danger. The world is dangerous and mysterious, but good dogs will persevere.
THEY CAME IN OUTER SPACE (By Double RR Studios)
In this comedy that plays off of 50's style sci-fi B-movie and radio drama tropes, Herbie Zoozman Jr., has reinvented the Interactive Cranial Activit-O-Vision ™, where YOU are Zoozman’s Co-Producer in charge of the mythic story of rocket-jockey Commander Brad L. Whiteman and his journey to a planet inhabited entirely by "Panther Women."
HEAD GAMES (Enhanced with Bose AR)
This Sci-Fi thriller is controlled by gestures like nodding, head shaking, ducking, and turning, as well as voice. When you are contacted by mental telepathy while using the Bose device, an NSA agent guides you to communicate with head gestures to prevent an alien invasion. But the aliens want to tell you their side of the story. Who will you trust? Developed in partnership with Bose, this story experience is enhanced by Bose AR, a first-of-its-kind audio augmented reality platform.
CODENAME CYGNUS
Enjoy mission one of the first ever voice-operated interactive audio story, a spy thriller where you play the secret agent. Originally launched in August 2013, six episodes of the story (and a bonus holiday episode) have been released so far. Learn more at http://codenamecygnus.com and https://www.earplay.com
