Mobile gaming's innovative spirit is truly inspiring, and Roia perfectly exemplifies this. This unique puzzle-adventure, from the indie studio Emoak (creators of Paper Climb, Machinaero, and Lyxo), takes an unexpected approach to game design.
The core concept? Guiding a river to the sea. Simple, yet captivating. Players manipulate the landscape using their finger, gently directing the water's flow.
Emoak shares that Roia holds deep personal meaning for designer Tobias Sturn, inspired by childhood memories of playing in a creek with his grandfather. The game is a touching tribute to him.
Roia offers a relaxing, yet challenging experience. Players navigate diverse environments – forests, meadows, villages – guided by a helpful white bird. The game's aesthetic is reminiscent of Monument Valley, complemented by a beautiful soundtrack composed by Johannes Johannson (also known for his work on Lyxo).
Available now on Google Play and the App Store for $2.99.
