Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.14/day in the week to Aug 13 → 0.29/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
In the wake of her father’s death, Maya enters the House of Wisdom, a dreamlike sanctuary filled with centuries of knowledge. By transforming elements with a mysterious device, Maya must solve puzzles to traverse the realms of larger-than-life historical Scholars. Each door she opens uncovers the secrets of her father’s legacy, but behind them lie the shadows Maya may not be ready to face.

Explore the awe-inspiring House of Wisdom as Maya, a curious 14-year-old girl seeking answers in the wake of her father’s passing. Navigate nine distinct and thematic worlds inspired by the discoveries and inventions of great Scholars of the Islamic Golden Age. Along the way, enjoy emotionally resonant music by award-winning composer Austin Wintory.

Wield a remarkable heirloom that Maya’s father left behind to transform matter and solve physics-inspired puzzles that reflect her journey. Glide through looping wind channels, tip scales with metal transmutation, walk through walls of immaterial ether, bend light through glass, and more, to unlock Maya’s path. Experience an underlying current of hope that will guide her as she faces the trials of healing that lie ahead.

Experience the brilliant Scholars of the House of Wisdom brought to life by a fully-voiced cast in English and Arabic. Find wisdom and comfort in their scientific and philosophical teachings through entertaining yet meaningful conversations.

Pretty fun puzzle platformer in a unique setting. Great character designs and engaging plot. Little rough around the edges, but worth the price.
突发奇想搜索奇幻化伊斯兰/阿拉伯风格游戏时被谷歌搜索推荐到了这个游戏。在中文区应该几乎没几个玩家了解到这个游戏……尽管评测量非常少,令人意外地制作完成度很高、设计很成熟,解谜时需要一点小思考但又不为难人。女主角如何处理丧父悲痛的主线剧情倒是写得有点套路。制作组显然有希望挖掘伊斯兰女性学者的魅力,有两位富有人格魅力的女性学者(以及我们令人喜爱的女主角Maya),但对[spoiler] 反派“寡妇” [/spoiler] 塑造又依赖于她和丈夫的关系,而且处理得较为单薄。 Google search recommended this game for me when searching video games with Islamic/Arabic aesthetic. Despite the very limited number of reviews, the game is surprisingly polished and well-designed; the puzzles require a bit of thought without being frustrating. Though the main story about the protagonist coping with the loss of her father follows a fairly familiar formula. I appreciated seeing two historical Islamic women scholars included in the game, and both are portrayed as memorable and engaging characters. By contrast, I found [spoiler] the antagonist "the Widow" [/spoiler] somewhat less compelling, as much of her characterization revolves around the relationship with her husband.

A labor of love that's a little rough around the edges. I was a bit put off at first when the character animation didn't acount for the analog stick moving rapidly back and forth, but I quickly realised that it didn't matter, and started enjoying the game for what it is. This is mainly a puzzle game, and I liked the puzzles throughout it. I never got stuck on any of them for more than a couple of minutes, and never had to consult a guide or walkthrough. They weren't too easy either. Even though the story didn't resonate with me, I did appreciate the characters and would like to see more of the scholars. I look forward to whatever comes next from this team!
A short game, but easy to play, beautiful to behold, and with a touching story.
Short puzzle platformer. IN ARABIC!!!
لعبة جملية جدا انصح بتجربتها لم العب العاب ذو طابع عربي كهذه تستحق التجربة
Good puzzle adventure with a historic twist. The music and visuals are a bonus.
Although quite short, it is a beautiful game with a beautiful message about grief and losing loved ones. This feels a lot like a PS3 era Puzzle-Plattformer, and I mean that in the most positive way, it felt almost nostalgic in it's slightly janky mechanics and gorgeously designed world. Really enjoyed the puzzles, the platforming was alrightish.
Nice little puzzle game. Touching story, great voice acting and music. Definitely rough in some places (couple platforming oddities, some animation weirdness), but it's all forgivable.
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful!
