For the past 6 months Splinter have busily been developing the games for Conker Media’s multi-platform digital fiction event, The Well; created for BBC Switch.
The Well aired on BBC Two on Saturday afternoons and extended online where the audience immerse themselves further in the story – exploring a spookily-atmospheric recreation of the main drama location in a multi-level game. By engaging in a series of tasks and challenges the audience unlock hidden drama content which reveals the backstory to the TV drama.
Are you good at mini-games? Do you think you can beat the hag? Then have a go at The Well game, over on the BBC site.

The Local Work Guarantee is a new scheme offering a different type of opportunity for out of work people in Hull wanting to find long-term employment and employers looking to address skills shortages. Splinter developed an identity for the scheme focussing on the positive outcomes for participants, businesses and the scheme’s partner organisations.
We have produced a wide range of media for the launch including logo & branding development, website, marketing pack, merchandise, launch event materials and advertising solutions. In order to ensure the campaign is believed by stakeholders, and has local relevance, we commissioned new photography of the actual individuals taking part in the scheme, and utilised them throughout.
