'The most daring, dangerous, heart-stopping intergalactic race in the universe is the Sun Run, a lap of the entire solar system and around the sun. Gamma and Olli are the youngest Sun Runners there ever was and they are ready to race.

'Just days before the big race, Olli and Gamma crash land on Mercury – they’ve got to get out of this intergalactic mess and get back to the asteroid belt in time for the Sun Run.

'Plunge headfirst into an immersive space adventure. With a pair of headphones and a mobile device, you become Olli and Gamma, hurtling across the farthest reaches of the galaxy in your own living room. Sun Runners infuses imaginative, physical play with a cinematic score to create a thrilling action-packed experience. Audioplay is technology without the screens.'

'Italy, World War Two. Fierce and brave Antoinetta, a known communist, heavily pregnant, has to flee to Australia to safety. Her husband Sante, a gentle storyteller, stays to fight against Europe’s rising fascist regimes.

'Separated by war and unimaginable distance, Sante and Antoinetta can communicate only through coded letters, their experiences mirrored and revealed through the folk stories they tell each other.

'Based on true stories, Tale of Tales fuses fairy tales with the horrors of war. Filled with shadow puppetry, romance, and violence, Tale of Tales takes its name from the classic Italian fairy tale and looks at how the stories we tell shape us and our families.'
