Fish in a Bottle

Games that educate and entertain

Fish in a Bottle is a UK games studio that designs games and digital experiences to educate, entertain and inspire. The studio says play drives how people learn, connect and solve problems, and it applies that idea across children's education, entertainment and corporate training. It blends expertise, evidence and empathy to turn play into experiences that last for players, learners and partners.

Work for entertainment and learning brands

The studio says it has spent more than twenty years partnering with major names in entertainment and learning. Its projects include interactive educational content for BBC Bitesize, an interactive resource for the Science Museum Group that lets children aged seven to twelve and their families explore science, and games made for a range of commercial and public clients.

Reading and early learning products

iRead is a personalised learning product that supports the development of reading skills in primary-age children. Navigo is a reading game app in the studio's portfolio. Scoodle Play is an educational platform that uses gamification to make learning content more engaging for children.

Roblox, brand and purposeful games

The studio designs for the new behaviours of players on Roblox, and it builds brand games for organisations that want to reach large audiences. Its purposeful games focus on education, training, raising awareness and improving people's lives, and the studio says it has made the games that bring success to clients who want to reach their audience.

Guidance on children's games and learning

The studio publishes practical guidance on children's data protection, including what COPPA and GDPR-K compliance mean for brands and intellectual property owners who move into games. Other articles cover five ways games can improve learning and development, and the role of purposeful games in workplace training and in how people learn new skills.

Team and experience

By its own account the studio is among the most experienced games and interactive studios anywhere. Its team brings a range of skills across game design, development and interactive production, and it tests its work against the needs of the audiences it serves.
