At Total Immersion, we build games and game technology for two primary reasons: it's important and it's fun.

Fun: Serious Gaming!

Building immersive, other-worldly fun games is one way we use RealWorld. We take full advantage of the flexibility and fidelity of RealWorld to design entertainment games so we can deliver almost infinite variations in engaging immersive play, unforgettable environments, dazzling effects, and intense action.

Imagine a time when a new, completely novel game could be created in record time using the RealWorld platform by drawing upon the assets in our Digital Backlot. That's why we built RealWorld - to allow us to build great games fast; games unleashed by innovation and creativity.

Seriously. Games that Matter.

Imagine you are a first responder to emergencies. Imagine it's October, 1991 — high fire season in Oakland, California.

A devastating firestorm erupts in the Oakland hills, and now imagine that when you arrive on scene, your hoses don't connect to the hydrants. Unfortunately, this is actually what happened.

Now imagine that a training system exists with such fidelity and realism that you can train first responders to be aware of incompatible hose/hydrant couplings before the fire happened.

This is another way we use the RealWorld platform.

For those who face-off against natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina, terrorist actions like 9/11, or unexpected events like a city-wide blackout, the devil is in the details. In a RealWorld simulation, game radios behave like real radios, hoses pump water at the correct pressure and squelch the fire at the same rate and in the same way that real water would. We believe our first responders and professionals will be better prepared and suffer fewer lives lost — both their own and civilians'.
