About
You stumble upon the last Henki - a creature unlike any other, a shapeshifter keeping the world of Taival in balance. Together, you set out across a handcrafted blocky world to recover the shattered fragments of its lost heritage. What you find along the way will change both of you.
Taival is a co-op adventure RPG for up to 4 players where your goal is to find out who destroyed Heartstone of the Henki, restore it to its former glory and bring your companion back to where it belongs. This is a cozy yet mighty adventure you’ve never seen before.
Your Henki companion is the heart of Taival. As you encounter new creatures across the world, Henki can absorb their essence and shift into their form each one bringing a unique set of abilities to battle and exploration. A hulking beast that absorbs damage. A swift mount that scales cliffsides. A cunning predator that strikes from the shadows.
The more of the world you explore, the more forms you unlock. Master new skills and find the combination that fits your playstyle or your party's.
Taival is a handcrafted open world built from the ground up with a charming, voxel-style blocky art style. Multiple seamlessly connected realms each bring their own environments, inhabitants, and secrets from rolling highlands to dense forests and ancient ruins waiting to be uncovered.
Spread across the world are tons of quests with varying lengths. Players can help a farmer figure who stole their barrel of plants (it was a rodent), or they can assist in settling a house ownership disagreement between two goblins. The game being a cozy co-op RPG doesn’t mean the quests are only on the cozy side of things; Players can find themselves fighting a beast on a barbarian camp or doing some pest control on insects of their own size.
Taival is built for playing together. Invite up to 3 friends and journey as a full party each with their own character, companion, and skill tree. What makes Taival's co-op special: you can mix local split-screen and online players in the same session, simultaneously. One friend on the couch, two more joining from across the world all in the same adventure.
When your group faces a pivotal quest decision, everyone gets a say. You will all follow the same dialogue, letting you see each other's cursors and suggested dialogue options.
Taival's progression runs on two tracks that grow in tandem. For your character: unlock abilities, improve your combat skills, and even level up your fishing. For Henki: master new creature forms, unlock mount abilities for faster exploration, and build a companion that feels uniquely yours. The deeper you go, the more the world opens up.

I've been waiting for a game like this for a long time, and Taival has been a pleasant surprise. It captures that sense of adventure and exploration that made games like Cube World so special, while adding its own charm and personality. The world is beautiful, cozy, and genuinely fun to explore. The Henki companion is a great idea, and unlocking new forms keeps exploration feeling rewarding. I also love that the game supports both online and local co-op, even at the same time. That's a feature you rarely see these days. There are lots of collectibles worth searching for, and many of them are genuinely challenging to find. Considering this is an Early Access release, I'm honestly impressed with how polished the core gameplay already feels. I haven't run into any major issues so far, and it's clear that a lot of care and passion went into making this game. On top of that, the developers are incredibly active and engaged with the community. They're listening to feedback, responding to players, and that gives me a lot of confidence in the future of the game. If you're looking for a cozy co-op adventure with a charming world to explore, Taival is absolutely worth checking out. I'm excited to see how it grows throughout Early Access.
Invite your friends and waste time on this game, its so worth it! I would love to see a standalone character and henki creator, imagine how awesome it could be to be able to make characters for your friends, and customise your henki, you know like give it a bow-tie and a top hat.
pretty neat game
Having a blast with this so far I’ve only played for an hour but the gameplay is already super fun and keeping me hooked controls feel smooth and responsive, it has a cool clean style reminds me of minecraft that fits the game perfectly Can't wait to play more, definitely worth checking out
推荐,但又不推荐 挺好,但也不太好 框架挺好的,但是很空,然后大量的玩法机制成谜,主线任务也会因为没有引导卡关。 像个加长版的demo。 然后翻译和文本显示还有各种bug。 除此之外其实质感挺好,但是感觉不如照着cube world进行针对性优化。 然后优化有点差,反正我会掉帧
The graphics, the music, and combat all feels good. Its a tough task to make a game by hand crafting everything but they've done an incredibly good job with what they’ve built so far.Good amount of quests around the world also, will be fun to go through those.
¡Muy recomendado! Gran mundo para explorar, buen cooperativo y un sistema de compañeros muy original. Aún está en Early Access, pero ya se nota el enorme potencial que tiene.
Красивая милая игра, которая если бы была бы не в Майнкрафт стилистике, только выиграла Но это мое мнение, буду играть, мне понравилась ПыСы Сделал пару квестов, классная игра, удачи разработчикам!!!
Funny Game :) You must try it ! :)
Was waiting for this since 2015. Thank you for your great work and making this real.
