Discover Wildspace App

We developed the Wildspace app for the London Borough of Havering who administer the site, to guide visitors on a walk from Rainham village to the River Thames. The app, powered by Imagemakers ‘i-explore’ app engine, allows multiple players to compete to spot wildlife and fascinating heritage features, automatically selected through an inbuilt seasonal filter.

High resolution imagery is complemented by spoken narrative, birdcalls and fiendish questions. A multi platform marketing campaign, including posters and a webpage, was also created to raise awareness of the App. It features a pheasant and the little known fact that these birds, when pressed, can run at 60mph!

“We’ve completed two test sessions with the RSPB and our funders. The feedback has been really positive. All ages enjoy the question element of the game – it encourages them to learn by stimulating a real competitive streak!”
Tracey Boyle, Project Manager, Jacobs Engineering.

The ‘Wildspace’ App was funded by the former London Development Agency through a Thames Gateway Parklands grant.

You can download ‘Discover Wildspace’ at both the iTunes Store and the Android Marketplace.
