The challenge

A family-focused education nonprofit wanted to spark real curiosity about ancient Egypt in elementary and middle schoolers — without handing kids a Wikipedia article. They needed something interactive, safe, and delightful enough to hold attention past the first click.

Our approach

We designed MythForge as a guided remix experience: pick two sacred animals, and an AI generates a brand-new mythic creature, a short origin myth, and a papyrus-style illustration. Prompts are tightly constrained to keep generations age-appropriate and culturally grounded.

What we built

  • Interactive creature-combiner with 20 hand-curated sacred animals
  • AI-generated origin myths in age-appropriate language
  • Papyrus-style illustrations generated per creature
  • Mobile-first design optimized for tablets in classrooms
  • Teacher mode with curriculum-aligned discussion prompts
