About E-Line Media: 
E-Line Media is a developer and publisher of video games with meaningful themes and authentic voices. Founded in 2008, the company's mission is to develop games that fire the imagination, catalyze curiosity, and provide gateways to new perspectives and interests. 
 
The Company is a mission-driven, for-profit enterprise whose investors seek market-level financial returns and positive social impact. Its titles include the BAFTA and Peabody award-winning Never Alone, the Jackson-Wild-winning Beyond Blue, Gamestar Mechanic, and MinecraftEDU.  
 
The Emirati Cultural Game will be a project similar to E-Line's Never Alone, which was developed inclusively with the Cook Inlet Tribal Council (CITC), a pioneering Alaska Native organization. Never Alone's goal was to share, celebrate, and extend Alaska Native culture with a global audience. The game is based on a story passed down for thousands of years, is in the Inupiaq language, and features 24 ‘cultural insight' mini-documentaries unlocked through gameplay, inviting players to connect deeply with Alaska Native heritage and tradition. 
The game has resonated worldwide, reaching over 15 million players. It has been featured in thousands of articles, won numerous awards, and is in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
