About the Game

An artificial intelligence known as The Eye watches over every citizen of the dome city KAPIA.

When retired pilot Stefan disappears after uncovering evidence that could change the fate of the world, his granddaughter Reny sets out to find him.

Play as both characters, solve puzzles, uncover conspiracies, and discover the truth behind the war that forced humanity beneath the dome.

  • Controller or Point-and-clickA traditional point and click flow with an easily accessible drop-down inventory. To make things more exciting we also added a first-person close-up menu where you can interact with various items.
    Or play KAPIA with your controller and enjoy a modern game flow from your couch.

  • Play for both charactersPeople have different sides to them, and the same goes for characters in KAPIA. Discover the story from different perspectives as you play for both Stefan and Reny. Follow their own unique paths to achieve a common goal.

  • Unique 3D designEnjoy a carefully crafted environment of medieval architecture and futuristic gadgets. Intelligent robots walk the streets of manually carved stone, power banks light up antique lamps, and typewriters serve as input devices for powerful computers.

  • Puzzles and mini-gamesLogic and diversity was the key to our work on this most significant aspect of the game. Just like in traditional adventure game most puzzles are tied up with objects, but there are also conversational puzzles and a whole bunch of logical mini-games.
