About the Game

Gaia is a story-driven platformer game, that takes you through Greek Mythology where you will face the Gods. How you will do this depends on you. Will you try to take them by force or use your brain to defeat them?

You play as Gaia, a young girl who is growing up in the Netherlands alongside her little brother Luca and her parents Stefany and Max. When Gaia is with her brother and father on a trip to Amsterdam, she wonders a little too far ahead while her father can't leave her little brother alone. This starts an epic adventure that you will never forget and will show the importance of being good to the environment.
