We’ll be hanging out in our official Discord sharing stories, streaming, and answering your questions about the game.

Join us in r/cozygames at 10am PT / 12pm CT / 1pm ET. We'll be answering all your questions about the game!

The following is a list of known issues that we are currently working on. If you encounter any other issues as you play, please feel free to join our Discord and let us know.

• When playing the game in Arabic, sometimes text and voice over will appear in English.

• When interacting with characters in dialogue scenes, sometimes they will freeze. This does not impact the voice over or UI text that accompanies the interaction.

• In some dialogue scenes, a character’s voice may be quieter than intended. This does not impact the UI text.

• Rarely, Maya’s hair will glitch or stand on end when interacting with an object. But who among us hasn’t had a bad hair day, amiright?

• Some characters may travel to their new destination before intended, or they may encounter an empty Atrium. If this happens, try reloading the last autosave.

• Occasionally, players will encounter bugs when attempting to remap buttons on controller.

• Occasionally, shadow and light beams will not display properly. If this happens, please restart the level from your last save and these items should reappear.

• Rarely, a crash will occur when players load a new level. If this occurs, restart your game and attempt to re-load the level.

• Some players may experience performance issues when playing on older PCs.

• The credits list is not currently accessible in the menu, only at the end of the game. A fix is planned to correct this in a future patch.

We’re so grateful to everyone who supported us as we developed this game. If you wishlisted, played the demo, shared a post, or sent a kind word, thank you. 💙🌙

We’re proud to announce that The House of Hikmah launches April 8th on Steam!

The wait is almost over. Soon you’ll be able to explore nine distinct realms within the House of Wisdom, meet scholars inspired by history, transform elements and solve puzzles using an ancient heirloom, and embark on an immersive healing journey about loss, legacy and hope, told through a captivating narrative.

We've been fortunate to work with so many talented artists who have helped bring this game to life. The full game will be fully voice acted in both English and Arabic, featuring Sophia Eleni as the voice of Maya, Battlefield 6’s Nezar Alderazi, Assassin's Creed Mirage’s Laila Alj, Split Fiction’s Ben Turner, Talal Karkouti, and more.

As you play, you'll listen to the melodious tones of a soundtrack created by award-winning composer Austin Wintory, of Journey and Flow, among others. His music adds depth and dimension to this emotionally resonant game.

If you’re here, you’ve probably already wishlisted (thank you!), but if you haven’t, now is the time to do so. And of course, if you know anyone else who would enjoy this kind of game, please spread the word! Now, to make that final push to the finish line! See you on the other side!
