Kosmos is a leading German toy and game brand with an international reach. They specialise in role play adventure board games, extended by their dedicated app. The most successful of these games is Exit, an escape room board game that is made more immersive by the app.
We worked with Kosmos on multiple apps and communications, using our experience in sonic UX and UI interface for gaming. For the Exit series, we created and produced voice overs, sound effects and music. These were used to build atmospheric, immersive soundscapes for the app that added to the depth and engagement of the gaming experience. We also composed theme songs for each app game to set the scene.
Sound adds another dimension to these games, drawing in players and helping them feel more involved as they play. Over 1.5million copies of the Exit games were sold in 2020, outperforming Monopoly. ‘The Crew’ edition also won gold at the German Games awards. But the last word goes to the players; we were delighted to see positive reviews on Amazon that highlighted the power of the sonic worlds we created to help players feel at the heart of the action.
