About

Winner of Best Indie Game at the 2024 New York Game Awards and nominated multiple times at other ceremonies including The Game Awards and the BAFTA, Chants of Sennaar is a critically-acclaimed puzzle and adventure game developed by Rundisc.
Divided since the dawn of time, the Peoples of the Tower no longer speak to each other, isolated by fear or mistrust. It is said that one day, a Traveler will find the wisdom to break down the walls and restore the balance. Travel the endless steps of a prodigious labyrinth, uncover the truth and unveil the mysteries of this fascinating universe where ancient languages are both the lock and the key.


Inspired by the myth of Babel, discover an enigmatic and vast tower. As the Traveler, delve into a world full of mysteries, where Peoples have grown distant, unable to communicate with each other anymore. Begin your adventure in a prodigious tower inhabited by five distinct Peoples, observe, listen, and strive to mend the bonds of distrust.


With a smart gameplay system, explore and solve various puzzles to uncover the mysteries of five different interconnected languages. Always guided by your trusty notebook, note each symbol, keep track of your surroundings, engage in conversations with people and unravel the meaning of every glyph. Each step will pave your way to the top of the Tower as each word will restore the link between People.


Dive into an enthralling and colorful world full of secrets. Tumble headlong into a beautiful world inspired by impactful European comics authors where every floor of the Tower possesses its own visual identity, supported by distinctive technological levels, architecture and culture. Embark on a poetic and enchanting journey driven by a soul-stirring, lyrical soundtrack, made by Thomas Brunet.

非常好的游戏
Chants of Sennar was a very cool game to play and I highly recommend if you like puzzles.
Very enjoyable, puzzles are nice without any moon logic. Translation system is good once you've learned the meanings.
非常好的游戏使我大脑皮层展开如树懒般光滑。所以说婴儿时期的我语言学习能力之强悍无法用世俗标准衡量。简单来说就是如神一般。 神
佳作
短小精悍的第九艺术,值得一玩,别看攻略
Good game!
有趣的语言解谜
花两天打完了,顺手做了个全成就。我觉得应该表扬的一点是游戏的成就还是比较好做的。建议玩的时候后台挂个攻略视频,有些地方想不到那确实想不到。刚打到结局的时候感到困惑是正常的,别急着去搜。
WOW. what a game it was. i had to say this before saying anything else. when i bought the game, the only thing i knew was the people who couldn't understand each other. i love languages and etymology, so i decided to give it a try. but they actually created an entire universe, multiple languages and communities based on the tower of babel myth, and realising that without being informed beforehand made it even more exciting than it already is. also, [spoiler] as you went up, communities had more complex words and a better language structure, even some grammatical explanations for the anchorites language (even though we didn't receive much words of the language since most people weren't able to communicate). [/spoiler] everything had stunning details, and i enjoyed the game very much. 1000000/10, would buy again.
