The Open University wanted a brand new style of interactive learning to complement their existing work on biodiversity and species loss - whilst capturing the interest of a wider audience on the web.

The OU needed a highly creative and well-designed piece - so they got in touch with us and together we created Museum of the Dead!

A combination of fact, fiction, wit, humour, animation, music, online voting and social media tools are seamlessly brought together to provide a highly immersive, unique style of learning experience. 

I’m impressed with Enigma Interactive. They made a huge contribution to the Museum of the Dead. They took time to understand our idea and came up with a compelling solution. Their design team conjured superb visuals for the piece. Similarly their use of sound was outstanding, receiving much positive feedback. Behind the scenes, their technical development was well planned and executed. Our users love the interactive. Significant credit for that must lie with this talented agency.

We’ve immensely enjoyed working with The Open University.  A lot of creative thought and work has gone into the site to ensure it captures the interest of, and engages with, the wider audience it is aiming at. This is an excellent example of what the team at Enigma do best!
