The Play Layer
Tools
Five gamified diagnostic and strategic tools designed to transform abstract brand concepts into interactive experiences. Each game serves a distinct purpose in your brand development journey while contributing data to the broader ecosystem.
The Play Layer consists of five integrated tools that work together to help you discover, refine, and monetize your professional brand. Starting with the foundational C.A.F.E. Energy Profiler, each game builds upon the insights from the previous one, creating a comprehensive system for brand development.
