Playing Kafka has a release date: May of 21st! 🪲

Hello! I’ll be very short: we have a new game coming out in 7 days and we are stoked!

So, scroll for a new (and a last) teaser, highlighting the great work of our voice actors. And, if you can, spread the word – it would mean a world to us!

PSA: Playing Kafka releases on May 21st on iOS, Android and Steam (Windows, Mac). And we made a new, short video to celebrate. A last teaser before launch!

In fact, we have three teasers, as our narrative adventure will be fully voiced. And our editor Lucie made sure to make the work of our voice actors shine! So, without further ado, click to watch:

English teaser
Czech teaser
German teaser

It took us a lot of planning and editing (by the fabulous Mr. Wombat studio that took care of all the sounds and music), but we are so happy with the result. We also have some local stars on the roster, like Jaroslav Plesl and David Novotný.

Let us know what you think!

And if you like what you see, make sure to wishlist (helps the algorithms, really) and consider sharing Playing Kafka with somebody who might be interested.

The game will be 100% free. We’re asking because we just want to get the game Kafka in front of as many eyes as possible!

So, yeah. We are all working hard here to make sure the release goes smoothly, and we are eager to hear what you’ll think when you get your hands on Playing Kafka.

Sorry for not including a proper recommendation section this time - but check out the great A MAZE festival lineup with great demos on Steam. We wre there and we particularly liked Miniatures, Phoenix Springs, Grunn and Sorry We’re Closed!

This is probably the last e-mail I’ll send out before launch. Thanks a lot for the ongoing support and let’s hope we won’t be woken up one morning and arrested, even though we did nothing wrong like Josef K. from the Trial. And if we do, I hope they’ll let us have our Steam Deck. Where Playing Kafka looks great, by the way.

Take care!

Yours truly,
