The House of Wisdom was a real place. An epicenter of science, translation and creativity that changed the course of human knowledge. Our game reimagines it through an emotional lens, connecting real history to Maya's healing journey.

We're guessing nearly everyone will relate to Maya, a headstrong girl of 14, and the main protagonist of our story. You see, her story is a familiar one for many of us, who have searched for answers after the passing of a loved one. Learn more about her in our most recent blog, at the link in bio!
