About Anzir
We are Anzir, a culture and technology company creating interactive entertainment and the tools behind it.
Our work began with running story experiences in Sydney. We bring that experience together with digital-transformation expertise, guided by a shared interest in stories and the people who make them happen.
Our beginnings
Before building Anzir, we ran Jubensha experiences in Sydney. Bringing stories to Chinese- and English-speaking players showed us how the same work can connect people from different backgrounds.
We also saw the care behind each session: the writing, preparation, hosting and attention to the group. That experience shapes our team’s approach. We build from the needs of the people doing the work, and keep learning from what happens in play.

The people behind Anzir
Andrew Liu · Founder
Andrew combines digital-transformation experience with hands-on story-game operations. The same approach guides Anzir: build from what creators, hosts and players actually need.
We are not trying to automate culture. We are building the conditions for more of it to happen.
Vision & mission
Our vision describes the future we want to help create. Our mission is the work we do to move towards it.
A world where stories bring more people together.
Across lives, languages and cultures, we want more people to experience a different perspective, connect with one another and find stories that matter to them.
Bring culture and technology together to help stories come alive.
Support the people who create, host and experience stories. Build tools that make their work easier, so they can spend more time on imagination, expression and the experience they share.
Our values
Five principles guide how we question ideas, build products and work with others. They apply to our creative work as much as our technology.
Let evidence shape our decisions, and speak up when it challenges our assumptions. Share the reasoning, uncertainties and mistakes that others need to understand our work, with care for privacy and confidential information.
Care deeply about the work and take on difficult problems. Focus our effort where it matters, hold a high standard and improve over time, at a pace that leaves room for health and life beyond work.
Put forward a considered view and invite others to test it. Listen across disciplines and cultures, study what we do not yet understand, and change our minds when experience or evidence points to a better answer.
Take ownership of real problems and be willing to try an unfamiliar path. Turn ambitious ideas into small experiments, learn from creators and players, and use what we discover to decide what to build next.
Keep decisions close to the people doing the work. Communicate directly, remove unnecessary approvals and make the next step clear. Take responsibility for following through, while respecting the people affected by our decisions.
