About This Game

Held is an hour-long interactive story about a father witnessing his child's birth and growth, created by a father of three.

Carry your child in your arms, hold their tiny hand, and support their first steps through the fleeting moments of parenthood.

Raise your child

Feed them, put them to bed, and squish their tiny cheeks as you spend your days together. Little by little, your child will grow, and the way they interact with you will begin to change.

Sometimes, watching over them is enough

For example, when your child tries to walk on their own, you should resist the urge to help and simply stay by their side. As time goes by, your child will stop needing your help.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

No AI-generated images or animations are included. Generative AI tools were used only as development aids, in two ways: (1) to create rough draft images used as references for composition, posing, and room layouts, and (2) to assist with translating menu and UI text into supported languages. All final in-game artwork was manually redrawn and finished by hand by the developer. All AI-assisted translations were reviewed by the developer, edited where needed, and approved before being included in the game.
