Digital Adaptations
We are currently hard at work on our first Digital
Adaptation, which will be John Buchan's The Thirty
Nine Steps.
Players will step into the world that exists in the
book and experience the incredible adventure of Richard Hannay in
an interactive-cinematic way. Set in 1914, players will be immersed
in authentic settings, where they can explore locations and make
choices as to how they wish to experience the story, orchestrating
the action as it moves forward towards its thrilling climax. But
this isn't a director's take on the classic novel. This IS the
novel brought to life on gaming platforms, where all of the
audiences' senses are used to tell the story.

Thirty-Nine Steps is a visual and aural feast for interactive novel
fans."

"The 39 Steps is a game that focuses on story rather than gameplay…
It is a bold move for developer The Story Mechanics. Luckily for
them, it works."

you've never experienced anything like this."

"Story Mechanics has spectacularly broken down the core elements of
the gripping prose and expertly pieced everything back together in
a mish-mash of styles that livens up the original work more so than
could ever have been imagined."

experience the story."

"From the outset, this is a wonderfully atmospheric, immersive app.
Richard Hannay's world is depicted through background illustrations
that perfectly complement John Buchan's text"
The Literary Platform
"And herein resides The 39 Steps: Collector's Edition's majesty:
it's not a videogame for everyone, but it's a videogame for
everyone eager to pursue the notion that the interactive medium can
enhance narrative structure."

"Hopefully we'll see more works of English literature done in the
style of The 39 Steps."
