Tired of waiting for permission

A frame story (also called a frame narrative or framing device) is a literary technique where an outer narrative sets the stage for one or more inner stories. Think of it as a story that contains other stories — like opening a book to find another book inside.

Classic examples include One Thousand and One Nights, where Scheherazade tells tales within tales to survive each night, and Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, where layered narrators reveal the story from multiple perspectives.

We chose this name because it reflects what we do: we build the frame — the studio infrastructure, tools, and support — so that the creators inside can tell their own stories. Every game that comes out of Frame Story is a story within our story.
