Wyrdren’s Story:

Wyrdren Games was founded in 2020 to bring modern player-driven narrative games to life for audiences worldwide. Spellbound, the much-anticipated visual novel.

Sally Sheppard started with a vision to create a branching narrative, multiple endings, and inclusive games where the player was at the heart of every decision. As gamers ourselves, we felt that too many games lay out a predetermined path for the player rather than letting the player make both big and small choices that affect the game’s narrative.

Choice has and will always be integral to our gameplay.

Originally a solo development project, as of Jan 2022 Wyrdren has now added a community manager to the team and now has hopes to expand further. We have been backed by the UK Games Fund and are pushing forward with creating a brilliant studio where a creative and diverse team can thrive.
