About Curious Media

Curious Media is an interactive digital agency and game development studio based in Nampa, Idaho, serving the greater Boise metropolitan area and clients worldwide. Founded in 2004, the independent studio creates games, applications, websites, animation, and immersive experiences for children's entertainment, education, and commercial brands. Its work combines visual design, software engineering, storytelling, and audio production across connected digital platforms.

Interactive production

The studio develops educational and entertainment games for web, mobile, Roblox, augmented reality, and virtual reality. Its technical capabilities include Unity, HTML5, WebGL, full-stack web development, and native iOS and Android applications. Projects can encompass frontend interfaces, custom content management integrations, backend cloud services, and responsive animation, alongside the art and sound required for a complete interactive experience.

Curious Media's creative services span character illustration, visual style guides, UI/UX design, 3D modeling, and 2D and 3D animation. Animation work includes series production, in-game sprites, motion graphics, and product explainers. Audio services cover original music, voice-over processing, and interactive sound effects. Functional testing, multi-device quality assurance, and accessibility integration support the studio's production work, including interfaces and gaming features designed for children and players with differing abilities.

Educational and entertainment work

The studio's portfolio includes digital learning experiences for PBS KIDS properties such as Rosie's Rules, Donkey Hodie, Lyla in the Loop, and City Island, as well as interactive work for Sesame Workshop and Disney Junior. Its entertainment and brand projects include Pokémon web experiences, Marvel Kids mini-games, LEGO digital campaigns, and companion applications for Hasbro products.

Beyond children's media, Curious Media has produced interactive 360-degree tours and virtual reality experiences for Georgia Power. This work extends its production capabilities into facility exploration and educational simulations. Alongside commissioned projects, the studio develops original consumer applications and casual mobile games, bringing its design and engineering capabilities to internally originated products.
