Short, satisfying mobile games. New levels every week and special editions for Halloween, Christmas and every holiday in between.
Creative technology studio
Games, stories and learning, made with curiosity and AI.
We are a small studio building mobile games and animated channels for kids and grown-ups. Technology and AI let us make more and faster, without losing the craft.

The studio
Octopuses have nine brains. We have one, and a lot of AI.
Erudite Octopus is a company that went from building software for others to creating its own entertainment. Every project mixes play and learning, and uses technology to stay small and fast. Our mascot, Eru, is a very curious octopus who never takes off his reading glasses.
Watch
Animated channels on YouTube, each with its own characters and a version made for every language, not just translated.
Learn
How things work, words, numbers, places and cultures. Learning happens inside the story or the game, never as a lecture.
- Start small. Every idea begins as the simplest version that can be tested.
- Measure everything. Players and viewers tell us what works, with numbers.
- Keep what sticks. What works gets new content every week. What doesn't work makes room for the next idea.
