Overview

Hemova is an independent female-founded game studio in Saudi Arabia. The team has more than 20 years of combined experience in 3D art and game development, and covers in house 3D art (environments, characters and props, from blockout to final lighting), gameplay, tools and performance work, and narrative design for adventure games driven by place, atmosphere and player choice.

The studio is developing Sands of the First Kings, a single-player 2.5D narrative adventure for PC. It is set in an Arabian fantasy world and built around a reactive Arabic world, character recruitment and choice-driven storytelling.

The game is in development, and a closed playtest is open through a registration form on the studio’s site and its Discord. Hemova is part of Exel by Merak Cohort 3.
