Games that grow you.

MindsPlay Studios makes games kids and teens actually want to play. Every one builds a real skill, from numbers and money to code, words and science, and the confidence to use them.

Why MindsPlay

Play first. The learning is inside.

Most learning apps are worksheets in a costume. We start the other way round: we build a game worth playing, then put a real skill at the heart of how you win.

01.

Real skills, not busywork

Every game is built around skills you use at school and in life. In Xed, every quest is a real maths question from the curriculum.

02.

Grows with you, 6 to 17

Our games line up into a path: start with counting at six, finish running a business at seventeen. Each game adapts to how you play.

03.

Made for here

African heroes, places, voices and money. Built in Accra by people who grew up here, for players across the continent.

04.

Safe by design

No ads. No loot boxes. No chat with strangers. Gear is earned by playing, never bought with real money.

05.

Progress you can see

Players see their stats. Parents and teachers see the skills behind them, skill by skill.

06.

Built with players

Kids and teens test every game before it ships. Our playtest crew shapes what we make next.

Xed is our first game and is heading into school pilots in January 2027. The others are early ideas we’re developing. Hype the one you want first.

How we build

Every MindsPlay game follows four rules.

  1. Fun has to work alone

    If the game isn’t fun without the learning, we don’t ship it. Players test it first.

  2. The skill is the mechanic

    You win by using the skill. In Xed, a bridge plank only fits if it makes 10.

  3. It adapts to you

    Too easy gets harder, too hard gets a lesson. No one gets stuck or bored for long.

  4. Growth is visible

    Players see stats and badges. Parents and teachers see which skills are mastered.

The studio

A games studio in Accra on a mission to make play the way Africa’s kids and teens grow.

We’re a small team of game developers, teachers and artists. We started with maths because it’s where most children get stuck. We won’t stop there.
