The studio
The founding principle of the studio is to combine learning with state of the art game development. We consider ourselves to be game developers first and foremost as we believe a fantastic game is essential for the learning aspect to be successful.
This studio is part of Mrs Wordsmith, an educational company, with offices around the world, that aims to make kids laugh while learning. We mainly collaborate with the London office, where a team of literacy experts ensure that the educational aspect of the game is backed by the latest and best research into vocabulary learning.
The team
The Word Tag team is made up of around 12 passionate game developers. It is a healthy mix of young and experienced talent. Each member is extremely talented in their field and all of them are super nice people. The team size also means that each member has a large impact on the game. The hierarchy of the team is shallow and the decision makers are highly accessible.
Your role
For this role we are looking for a person with excellent technical skills, a deep understanding of game mechanics and a passion for getting the feel of a feature just right. You are probably playing a lot of games in your spare time.
