About This Game

HOOK

A sugar‑coated fairy tale that may break your heart. Explore a warm, hand‑drawn world — then step into the Dark Worlds beneath it. Solve, listen, and choose: can you stitch back your lost memory and... identity?

Why you'll care?

We made Apopia for players who love character‑driven indie stories with surprising emotional weight. If you enjoyed titles that mix charm with slow-burning darkness and powerful character moments, you’ll find a lot to love here: heartfelt writing, unique gameplay shifts, and a world full of odd, memorable faces.

Play as Mai and:

  • Wander a lovingly illustrated fairy‑tale world full of original characters — from mischievous cats to earnest bunnies.

  • Read minds with the Green Eye: step into character memories and discover hidden truths.

  • Solve imaginative puzzles and outsmart opponents in a range of minigames.

  • Experience high‑energy animated sequences that punctuate key moments.

  • Face dramatic epic encounters that blend story and gameplay.

  • Uncover a layered narrative about identity, family, and what it means to belong.

FEATURES

  • A charming, hand‑drawn world with 100+ bespoke animations.

  • A unique “mind reading” system that turns thoughts into playable spaces.

  • Adventure + puzzle + rhythm + light action — a variety of gameplay to keep each chapter fresh.

  • Rich, character‑first writing: every NPC has personality, secrets, and purpose.

  • Original soundtrack and carefully timed animation to heighten emotional beats.

  • Quiet, meaningful moments balanced with surprising, high‑energy sequences.

  • Cute things you can play as (and YES, you can play as the CAT!).

  • Unravel the dark secrets of of of,f... ofo. .oo ,...

Final note

Apopia begins as a playful, sugar‑coated world — and slowly reveals the deeper, darker truths underneath. We think games can be joyful and honest at once; this is our attempt to prove it.

If this sounds like the kind of ride you want to take, please wishlist Apopia on Steam and follow our launch updates. We can’t wait to share the full story with you.
