Description

Story City, like Pokemon Go or Geocaching, but with stories, is the world’s first marketplace and GPS App for location-based stories, with each real-life choose your adventure, puzzle trail, or historical tale through city streets only accessible if you’re standing in the right location. Each story is created by local writers, artists, filmmakers, performers or tour guides who know their cities best. At Story City, we are of the firm belief that it is local stories and storytellers that are the change makers in our society. We want to redefine stories so they're something you're a part of, rather than something you're told, and to make cities places you interact with and explore, rather than just walk through. As a storyteller, whether you’re a writer, performer, musician or film-maker, you shouldn’t have to move away from the cities that you love, just to have a career.
