The Journey Behind Tico’s Travels

Tico’s Travels started as a spark of curiosity and a shared love for creativity and sustainability. We, Alexander Bond and Marika Zammartino, wanted to create something truly special—a game that didn’t just entertain but inspired. Fueled by countless late nights and endless brainstorming sessions, our passion for crafting a unique and meaningful experience became the heart of this project.

Alexander, with his expertise in biophilic design and sustainability, is deeply passionate about educating the next generation on caring for our planet. His vision ensured that every aspect of the game’s production was as eco-friendly, educational, and fun as possible. Marika, an avid gamer and designer at heart, brought her eye for detail and creative flair to crafting Tico’s Travels’ vibrant visuals and engaging gameplay.

We didn’t do this alone—our greatest inspiration came from the children who tested the game. Their unfiltered imagination and honest feedback shaped the final product, ensuring it’s packed with fun, adventure, and excitement for players of all ages.

Premium Quality, Sustainably Made

We were committed to producing Tico’s Travels responsibly. That’s why we partnered with Ludo Fact, a German company renowned for its premium manufacturing standards and dedication to sustainability. We chose them to ensure the highest quality and the smallest ecological footprint.

A Fresh Perspective on Gaming

We’re newcomers to the gaming world, and we believe that’s our strength. As fresh faces in the industry, we’ve poured new ideas, energy, and perspectives into Tico’s Travels. Our mission was to create a game that sparks connection, creativity, and adventure in a way that feels fresh and modern.
