Our mission

 

The GameTale Foundation develops high-quality innovative gamebooks (age group: 3-10), freely available to the children of the world. We also strive to reach kids with special needs, those living in difficult conditions and children left without parental care.

 

Our Goals

  (through understanding the importance of our choices in the story)
• Sparking children's imagination
  (through developing a story in a non-linear fashion)
• Nurturing love for the world, empathy and understanding
  (through developing entirely positive books)
• Developing positive adult-child interactions
  (with greater value when an adult reads to (plays with) the child)
• Working with children with special needs
  (through fear management, teamwork and social engagement developed in the game)
• creating love of reading and promoting child literacy
  (through creating highly engaging children books)
• Creating good esthetics
  (through working with top writers and illustrators)
• Reaching children in difficult conditions or without parental care
  (through special campaigns with your financial support and care)
• Promoting creative commons and author sharing
  (through releasing the eBooks free on a wide range of devices)

 

Statement from CEO and founder: Nikola Raykov

 

“I believe in the sacred bond between a parent and a child. I believe in the holistic psychological, emotional, intellectual and spiritual growth of a child, developing him or her as an unconstrained person capable of making independent decisions and taking responsibility for their actions. I believe in the development of common human values through understanding and empathy and the role of the parent in this process of growth and self-awareness. I am certain that games and entertainment are the shortest and the easiest road to intellectual and emotional awareness in children.

 

I am positive that the power of art is the shortcut to humans' inner nature. I believe in the free sharing of art and information as an important stage of humankind's development and maturity.”
