Opened up a virtual paradise during pandemic lockdowns.
Virtual Sentosa
When several doors close, a virtual one opens… or something like that?
At the height of the global pandemic, we brought Sentosa Island to the shores of Animal Crossing on Nintendo Switch. Cooped up in our homes, we’ve built an ultra-specific digital replica of Singapore’s #1 holiday island for travel-starved visitors in just 12 days. The results? Let’s just say we’ve managed to scratch everyone’s travel itch.
