A3G · All About Awesome Games
Over a century of combined experience playing, covering and working in games
A3G is a small team of three. Together we have over a century of combined experience playing, covering and working in games. We put that experience to work for studios, publishers, brands and companies that want to get games right.
What we do
Three services, each with its own page:
Private Pre-Launch Evaluation
A confidential, review-style evaluation of your game under NDA, with a prioritized UX/QA report, before the press and players see it.

For companies outside games: workshops, pre-investment due diligence and ongoing advice on how the industry works and where projects fail.
See details →PR, Translation, Presenting & Events
Press relations for Brazil and Latin America, translation and localization, on-stage and stream hosting, and event planning.
