-Based on the “Dollar Game”, we created Graphlands, an enveloping, approachable riddle game for young and old. In over 30 levels, you will populate islands, try to spread your population as equally as possible and crack your high score, while subconsciously training your brain and learning about graph theory. To ensure its accessibility, our game is playable on your computer or tablet in your personal browser of choice. And with an endearing yet simple design, even kids get a chance to play.

-- Self made and self animated, our assets give the game its flair. With our pixelated style and beautiful art, the game starts to shine: 14 different islands, 8 connecting rocks and multiple background drawings were created by our artists. And with a few lines of code, the animation brings the game to its lively state. Not only is our main menu equipped with an animated background, our islands and connections are too! With a simple click of the mouse, you see the islands that share their values wiggle in the sky.

 The logo was the last to be made, since we wanted a clear idea of our game, before creating such an important branding. Out of 16 options, we chose the simple text on islands, since it emphasises the general theme of our game.
