Lumino City is a unique project – an adventure game set in a real-world model, constructed over the course of three years by the tiny State of Play studio based in south-east London. Handmade entirely from paper, card, lights and motors, the enormous environment has been filmed and digitised, forming the backdrop to an epic puzzle-filled quest.

Speaking to Jordan Erica Webber at the GameCity festival, studio co-founders Katherine Bidwell and Luke Whittaker talk about the process of making the game and the exhibition in GameCity’s new dedicated building.

They also reveal the game’s release date for the first time.
