About the Game – Tawa: Lost in Time

Tawa: Lost in Time is a narrative survival-adventure game where players step into the fragile paws of Tawa, a small mouse lost in a vast and unforgiving prehistoric world. After being separated from her family by a powerful earthquake, Tawa finds herself alone in an ancient land dominated by dinosaurs and primeval landscapes. To survive, she must navigate a hostile ecosystem where she is not a predator — but prey.

Designed as an immersive single-player experience, the game blends emotional storytelling, stealth-based gameplay, and environmental puzzles into a cinematic journey. With no dialogue or traditional HUD, the story is told entirely through animation, music, and environmental cues.

Key Features

Immersive prehistoric world
Explore five unique biomes — coastal beaches, dense forests, volcanic cliffs, mysterious ruins, and an isolated central island. Each zone features unique visual identity, dynamic soundscapes, and carefully designed danger zones populated by ancient creatures.

Stealth and survival mechanics
Avoid predators, stay hidden in tall grass, burrow under roots, or freeze to avoid detection. Timing and observation are crucial. Tawa cannot fight, but she can outsmart, escape, and endure.

Narrative-driven exploration
Experience a silent story of resilience, fear, and hope. Tawa’s journey is a visual and auditory tale shaped by her surroundings and her reactions to them.

Naturalistic gameplay systems
Tawa’s stamina, health, and perception are influenced by environmental conditions. Rain, heat, hunger, and exhaustion all affect how she moves and reacts. Players must read the world like an animal would.

Dynamic audio and visual cues
No minimaps or UI distractions. Distant rumbles, predator calls, rustling bushes, and changing light conditions serve as navigational and survival signals.

An emotional journey with thematic depth
At its core, Tawa: Lost in Time is about vulnerability, family, and finding one's way in a world that is indifferent to your existence. It's a poetic and existential experience rooted in naturalism and quiet intensity.
