GODFORKIDS
The Client: Joanne Gilchrist is a writer, blogger, mentor and Christian communicator.
The Challenge:
Every night before tucking her girls into bed Joanne would read them a story from the Bible or an excerpt from a book of daily devotions. In time, Joanne created her own kids’ book filled with questions and puzzles based on the nature and character of God.
Joanne’s kids and her friends loved the activities, but Joanne wanted to make the material more widely available in a gamified app.
The Solution:
Joanne approached Appt after a recommendation from a friend. Appt helped Joanne to develop her app idea into a minimum viable product (MVP) and bring her app to market. Appt also worked with Joanne to develop a brand and visual identity for her app and stories.
The MVP version of God for Kids consisted of one adventure that children could complete, exploring God’s character with interactive puzzles, games and questions, all based on a Bible verse. Appt worked with Joanne to further develop and expand God for Kids to include multiple adventures and additional functionality.
Joanne has sold God for Kids to an American developer, but she remains involved in the creation of additional adventures.
