Core Values
Dawon is a AAA mobile‑first video game studio that brings India to the whole world.
Based in Bengaluru, India, we are a AAA studio creating mobile-first games on a global scale. Supported by parent company Prytania Media, Dawon Entertainment makes games grounded in an Indian ethos with the goal of empowering game makers and supporting them with a healthy development process.
Whitney is a multi-award winning Mexican-American game designer with a storied history in the video game and tabletop industries. Previously a narrative director at Hidden Path Entertainment, she led the narrative vision of an ambitious, unannounced AAA Dungeons & Dragons video game. Among other successfully shipped titles, her tabletop RPG horror game Bluebeard’s Bride and the surrealist mystery mobile title HoloVista have received a number of international accolades.
For the last 10 years, Whitney has been volunteering with Shanti Bhavan Children’s Project, a non-profit residential school outside of Bengaluru exclusively for children born into India's lowest socioeconomic class. After a decade of regularly spending time in India, Whitney recognized how few Indian voices are lent to the creative side of making games. With Dawon Entertainment, she hopes to empower new voices and make games that are both compelling and memorable to those who create and play them.
