History

Our History

Modern Storyteller started out in 2012 as Nick Pearce’s one-man modding alias. After creating a wildly successful mod, The Forgotten City, which racked up over 3.7 million downloads and became the first mod in history to win a national Writers’ Guild award, Nick handpicked a small team of industry veterans in 2017 to form Modern Storyteller, the studio.
