Announcing Our Investment in Magic Potion Games: Building Safe, Social, and Immersive Experiences for the Next Generation
At Konvoy, we are firm believers in the transformative power of games to shape the future of digital interactions, for all ages. Today, we are excited to announce our investment in Magic Potion Games, the developers of Imagine Island, a groundbreaking new online world, specifically designed for children under 13. With safety, creativity, and community at its core, Imagine Island is setting a new standard for kid-friendly gaming. “Imagine Island” is more than just a game - it's the next leap in the evolution of safe, social, and story-driven online worlds.
Why We Invested in Magic Potion Games
In an industry where balancing fun, safety, and technological innovation is a challenge, Magic Potion Games is leading the way by reimagining what’s possible. Founded by a pioneering team who worked on Club Penguin, along with veterans from Epic Games and Electronic Arts, Magic Potion Games brings unmatched expertise in building fun, safe and social online worlds that prioritize children’s well-being.
The gaming landscape is changing, especially for younger audiences. Parents want to know their children are engaging in online experiences that are not only entertaining but also secure. Imagine Island delivers just that—an imaginative, story-driven virtual world that provides children with the freedom to explore and create, while incorporating top-tier safety features from day one.
We were particularly drawn to Magic Potion Games’ commitment to online safety. Partnering with leading industry names such as k-ID and Microsoft’s Community Sift, the team has created a space where both fun and safety coexist. Their collaboration with privacy and safety experts ensures that Imagine Island meets the highest standards, giving parents peace of mind while allowing kids to fully immerse themselves in the joy of the game.
Looking Ahead
We are thrilled to support Stephen MacDonald and Karin Johnson as they bring Imagine Island to life and redefine what online play can look like for kids. With the team’s unmatched track record and innovative approach, we are confident Magic Potion Games will not only set a new benchmark for safe online worlds but also inspire the next generation of gamers. Our team at Konvoy is thrilled to support Stephen and Karin and the rest of the Magic Potion team by leading Magic Potion’s Pre-Seed round; other great investors participating in the round include 1AM Gaming, 1Up Ventures, GFR Fund, Goodwater Capital, and Wheelhouse Venture.
We are excited to be part of this incredible journey.
