AI Factory are specialists in quality, casual AI game engines and superior AI characterisation in full 2D and 3D games for PC, console and mobile.

Most of our history is in our own hands, but from time-to-time an external seismic event dictates our progress.

No, not the pandemic but Netflix's release of "The Queen's Gambit" which has received over 62m views and has boosted the interest in chess worldwide.

We have been swept up in this and have have gone the extra mile to provide an update to our product to engage the new enthusiasm for chess. A key hook in this series has been its focus on particular openings, and we have expanded our app so that the player can track what opening they are in. The program holds over 700 named opening lines and even tracks the final game in the series.

AI Factory's core activity is the development of traditional and casual games created around quality AI game engines, with an easy-to-use and feature-rich interface, including a high level of characterisation. We have developed complete game software on PC, console and mobile.

Alongside quality 2D games, AI Factory has created lavish 3D versions of a selection of classic games, bringing traditional games up-to-date with other genres in the games industry.

We have state-of-the-art AI game engines for an ever-growing range of casual games, including traditional board games, and parlour pastimes from East and West (chess, bridge, backgammon, reversi, shogi, chinese chess, chinese checkers, go, amazons, checkers, four in a line, gomoku and many more), classic card games (bridge, poker, hearts, spades and euchre), puzzles (taipei, dominoes, treasure hunt and others) and life-simulations (including darts, pool, snooker and football).

Many of these game names are instantly recognisable brands, as well as sitting firmly in the casual games genre, currently a fast growing gaming market.

AI Factory produce a free publication that includes articles on game AI and engineering. You can sign up for this periodical for free, to get your own copies of these articles and keep up to date with other AI Factory announcements.
