Lunacy Studios announced that their 3D adventure game, The House of Hikmah, will be available on Steam for PC on April 8th. The game features full voice acting and tells a story about dealing with grief, understanding what we leave behind, and finding meaning after a major loss.
According to Lunacy Studios’ creative director, Faris Attieh, the team aimed to craft a story about overcoming grief that would resonate with everyone. They achieved this partly by showing how Maya’s father influenced the scholars she meets, highlighting his lasting impact. This also allowed them to uniquely represent the Islamic Golden Age, something rarely seen in video games, according to a press release.
Here is an overview of the game, via Lunacy Studios:
