The award-winning animation company is expanding its digital footprint, launching Roblox games for its hit Sky Kids’ series 123 Number Squad! and the globally renowned show Leo the Wildlife Ranger.
As the second season of the preschool animated series launches on Sky Kids in the UK, Omens has released a game entitled 123 Number Squad: Turbo Ball! on Roblox. The game features timed rounds where players drive vehicles around, activate fun power ups, and score goals by answering math questions. Currently launched with one of the three vehicles from the hit show, the Number Rumbler, more content will be released regularly, including arenas featuring the Bubbleloo and the Swoosh Jet.
Omens is also developing Roblox games for Leo the Wildlife Ranger and other properties on its slate, as well as working on YouTube content, as it continues to extend its digital capabilities and offerings alongside its traditional series and IPs for linear broadcast and streaming.
123 Number Squad! and Leo the Wildlife Ranger are two of our most successful properties so we wanted to develop new experiences for our viewers who we know are already consuming our media on multiple platforms. We have a hugely experienced inhouse team of creators, animators and programmers who have the know-how and capability to design and develop interactive games and Roblox experiences across our own and third-party IPs. We are excited to continue to innovate and expand our content offering to our fans.

123 Number Squad! has developed a huge following both in the UK and internationally, and has picked up multiple awards, including Best Preschool Programme at the recent UK Broadcast Awards and at the Asian Academy Creative Awards.
The CG preschool series follows Paula, Billy, and Tim as they use numbers, counting, and shapes to become a fast- response rescue team that helps the citizens of Numberville. The fun and fast-paced education adventure series allows preschoolers to learn and laugh as they go, while also exploring key social and emotional development themes such as sharing, resilience, teamwork, and friendship.
Leo the Wildlife Ranger was commissioned by Singapore’s national public broadcaster MediaCorp and is available internationally in over 50 territories. The series has also scored multiple awards, including Best Preschool Animation (Country) at the Asian Academy Creative Awards and a Silver Telly Award for Television Animation Series.
The wildlife-centric series, which includes a brand new 80 x 10’ season 3, is aimed at 3-7 year olds and provides young audiences with zoology facts, teaches environmental awareness and nature conservation and helps build social skills and team work, all in fun and entertaining ways. The series features Junior Rangers Leo and Katie and their loyal canine companion Hero, on their quest to learn more about the beautiful animals and plants that surround us on this planet. The new updated series will see more action and development of the popular characters, exciting new gadgets, new animals, as well as more comedy and fun facts sprinkled throughout.
