Andrea Phillips is one of the most popular and richest Game Designer who was born on July 20, 1974 in Michigan, Michigan, United States. Video game designer and writer who became famous for creating alternate reality video games (ARGs), including Perplex City, and the BAFTA-nominated Channel 4 project Routes.
She thanked producer J.J. Abrams in the credits of the game A Map of the Floating City.
Phillips came to the genre in 2001, when she co-moderated the Cloudmakers mailing list which served players of “The Beast”, the ARG which revolved around the release of the movie A.I. Artificial Intelligence. The Cloudmakers community encompassed thousands of players of the game and eventually included a “guide,” walking players step-by-step through the game as it happened, a “journey”, describing in prose the content of the game and its backstory, and a “trail”, functioning as an FAQ to organize the multiple sites and widespread information sources present within the game. As a player of the game, Phillips co-wrote “the journey” and contributed to versions 4.5 through 9.0 of “the trail”.
In 2005, Phillips transitioned from being a player of transmedia and alternate reality games to being a designer of them. She was hired by Mind Candy as an “‘ad hoc’ polymath”, doing “‘a little bit of whatever it takes to keep the game rolling,’ be it designing and writing puzzles, or live event coordination.”. Perplex City was the first “freestanding” alternate reality game to run as a stand-alone project rather than as a marketing vehicle for a traditional media project and Phillips stayed with the project until Mind Candy announced in 2007 that Perplex City was being put on indefinite hold.
She was born in Michigan.
