Story City makes you the hero of your own adventure, giving you the chance to step into a story in locations across the world. Whether it’s a real-life choose-your-adventures, puzzle trails, or historic tales each experience only opens when you’re standing in the right place via the Story City App.
Whether you’re a reader, an adventurer, a traveller, a family, a gamer or maybe even a geocacher, our stories take you to the most interesting locations around the city with adventures created by local creators who know their city best.
Story City stories aren’t like your everyday stories where you are a passive consumer. We want to give you stories you can see and touch, stories that allow you to interact, be a part of them, and to make choices that can change them. As you make the decisions that affect how your story ends, you also travel a unique path through the city you’re exploring.
When the app detects you are in the right location it unlocks the next part of the story. Each story happens in the location that you are standing.
Download the Story City App from the Android App Store or Apple App Store now!
We’re redefining stories so that they are something you are a part of, rather than something you are told.
And we want to support the local storytellers you know, to do it.
Emily is a publishing-turned-tech wizard with a flair for interactive adventures. She’s produced 100+ immersive stories, authored 6 books, has spoken internationally on placemaking and transmedia and once upon a time collected a degree in astrophysics. When she’s not designing city-wide quests, she’s belting show tunes or inventing new ways to immerse you in your favourite stories.
Brett is Story City’s CTO and resident code conjurer. He’s a former Bioware dev (Dragon Age, Mass Effect), a professional a cappella singer, and the reason our GPS-powered stories don’t teleport you into traffic. He builds magical tools, sings on cue, and solves tech nightmares before breakfast.
Tim is a bilingual relationship-builder who’s turned startup diplomacy into an artform. From Microsoft to local murals, he weaves networks like a storyteller spins yarn. Fluent in collaboration (and Spanish), Tim helps creators and cities build magic together, one partnership at a time.

Since leaving the studio in 2014 to start Koncept Films, she has provided production, consulting and creative work for documentary, film and emerging new media and serves on the Advisory Board for Albuquerque Film and Music Experience.
I learnt a lot about Brisbane and Australia’s history. As well as the subject matter, the style of writing is very different to my normal methods. It’s important for artists to embrace the opportunities that new technology offers us and our audience. Projects run through enterprises like Story City enable just that.
Awesome way to see a city I use Story City mainly to explore my own city. I've only lived here for 2 years but feel like I've lived here forever with apps like this giving me a fun way to play and discover. Takes up a little bit of battery, but I just get around that by bringing a power pack. Highly recommend.
Exploring the minutea of locations for story telling prompts and clues. Combining vision, sound and story to transport an audience squinting at their smartphones while navigating city streets. It is a wonderful concept and innovative use of modern technology to promote story telling. I learnt a lot from the experience and loved the collaboration.
