Genres
This science, technology, engineering and math-based (STEM) U.S. Army-backed project was designed to pinpoint recruits who had an affinity for analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities.

We developed the “Cryptaris Mission” to embody STEM disciplines putting candidate’s knowledge to the test by challenging them through a host of simulated missions. Each mission focused on various STEM skill sets; scoring candidates on accuracy, speed, and missions specific objectives.
Our team leveraged WebGL, HTML5, WebSockets and AppEngine to develop “Cryptaris Mission”. We designed all of the motion graphics, 3D models and audio in house, controlling the content end-to-end and delivering a quality experience.
U.S. Army “Cryptaris Mission” was recognized by the community for excellence and was awarded the many accolades (see below).
