About Serious Games Interactive
Serious Games Interactive is a Danish applied game studio and digital agency based in Copenhagen. Founded in 2005 through a collaboration with Unity Technologies, it develops research-based games and learning experiences that connect educational psychology with commercial game mechanics. Its work encompasses serious games, interactive simulations, gamification and dilemma-based experiences for schools, businesses and public organizations.
The studio combines bespoke client development with proprietary educational games. Its formats range from digital games and virtual worlds to physical board games and blended experiences that connect screen-based activities with facilitated learning. Projects address subjects including history, civic participation, public health, recruitment, workplace safety and financial literacy.
Learning through interaction
The company's capabilities span strategic scoping, instructional and game design, narrative development, behavioral design and production. Its multidisciplinary approach brings together game development, psychology, instructional design, animation and project delivery. Production services include visual identity, 2D art, 2D/3D animation, interface design and Unity development, supported by hosting, maintenance and evaluation.
Digital projects are delivered as browser applications and native mobile apps. The studio supports learning management system integrations and Denmark's Uni-login authentication environment, and reports experience meeting WCAG 2.2 accessibility requirements. These capabilities support deployment in educational institutions and other organizations with specific access, integration and compliance needs.
Work across education and training
Its portfolio includes the journalistic and human-rights simulations Global Conflicts: Palestine and Global Conflicts: Latin America, historical learning games in the Playing History series, and early-childhood literacy and numeracy titles under MiniMo. Commissioned work includes recruitment and onboarding experiences, healthcare learning applications, children's interactive content and municipal engagement projects.
The studio serves education, enterprise training, government, healthcare and international organizations. Its assignments range from classroom learning to professional training and patient engagement, with some public-health and civic projects delivered in as many as 25 languages. This range reflects a practice centered on adapting game formats and learning mechanics to different audiences, subjects and deployment settings.
