“What if the tale of Gilgamesh wasn’t just simple fantasy?
What if it was a story carefully constructed to hide an ancient truth that the world was never meant to discover?”
Hello friend & welcome! Do words like “adventure,” “historical fiction,” “archeology,” “romance,” and “action-packed” perk up your ears?
If so, you may be an adventure lover like we are! If you’ve been looking for a new voyage into the world of escapism, boy do we have some exciting news to share with you!
We are currently working on the pilot for a brand-new audio drama series called “The Invicta Collective!”
Our story, taking place in the 1930s, will follow Arthur, Mohammed, Lola, Bashir, and a wide range of colorful characters as they seek to unearth the shocking truth behind this ancient Mesopotamian mystery all while facing down a violent foe who seems to want to stop their mission no matter the cost. Think “Indiana Jones meets the Strange Brigade” and you’ll be close to the pulp action style we’re going for! For the 25 minutes a week that you put your headphones on and join our story, you’ll be immersed in an audio drama adventure that will blow your mind and take you to places you’ve only dreamed of!

Many audio dramas have had great success in crowdfunding when they are able to produce the first season on their own and then try to crowdfund season two and beyond. This makes sense because it gives you the opportunity to listen to the show, get a feel for the production values, become invested in the characters and story, and then decide if you want more.
So why aren’t we doing that?
Simply put, because Invictum Digital is a studio of “one.” I put that word in quotes because there is no way I could do what I do without the talents and assistance of many wonderful people, like the ones listed in the cast and crew for this project. Wonderful people that I would like to pay for their services! My name is Jonathan Winstead, I’m a freelance sound designer. Invictum Digital is something I came up with so that people could find my/our projects. I don’t have the backing of any corporations or entertainment companies, it’s just me. I started creating audio dramas as a hobby and asked friends to help out for free, but I’d like to create more dramas. Better dramas! And I’d like to pay respectable rates to the people that help make it all possible!
How do you know if our project will be any good? Well, here’s a few thoughts on that totally valid question:
When the tranquility of the small town of Monroville is suddenly shattered one morning by a mysterious earthquake, Sheriff Buckley and Deputy Fish head out to investigate. What they discover lurking among the ruins will soon threaten not only the lives of all in Monroville, but also the lives of those in the cities beyond. Trapped in the local library by forces they don’t understand, will Sheriff Buckley & a small group of civilians be able to decipher the mystery of what’s happening and escape the clutches of the dead or will the library become their tomb?Find out when you listen to this captivating audio drama written by Jermey Ashley Pair & produced by Invictum Digital.Are you a fan of audio dramas?

Episode One – An Expedition to Where?
After a job turns sour, a treasure-hunting mercenary is left out of dough and sporting a shiny black eye. In other words, just another day in the life of 1930s adventuress Merona Grant. When presented with an opportunity for adventure and, more importantly, cash, Merona takes up the offer to follow a coded map and hunt down Judas Iscariot’s infamous thirty pieces of silver. The only caveat? Babysitting the expedition’s financier: an elderly, thrill-seeking aristocrat with a propensity for attracting trouble. A ragtag team is assembled, complete with a loyal dog, a stalwart pilot, a poised linguist, and a fusspot physician. But when a hail of bullets threatens their quest before departure, it becomes blindingly clear that ancient puzzles and booby traps will be the least of their worries as cultists, curses, and undead hordes begin to rear their ugly heads. Why can’t quests for ancient treasure ever just be simple?
Welcome to the pilot episode of Merona Grant & The Lost Tomb of Golgotha! Invictum Digital is partnering with author Brina Williamson to create the Merona Grant Audio Drama Series! An episodic series bringing to life Brina’s action-packed adventure novel of the same name!
This thrilling adventure & its beloved characters will be brought to life by a full cast of vocal talent, immersive sound design, & a beautiful score by composer Christian Powlesland. This spring, we will set up a Kickstarter campaign to raise the money for the rest of the series. Can't wait?
