Prepare to Find Your Words
Capybara Games has announced that its short adventure title Find Your Words will launch in April on Steam. The studio, known for acclaimed projects such as Below, Grindstone, and Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP, revealed the release window alongside a new trailer shown during The MIX Showcase.
When it launches, Find Your Words will be available as a free experience. A paid edition will also arrive later for players who wish to support the project and its development.
In the game, players explore a vibrant summer camp through the perspective of a child learning to communicate without speaking. The campgrounds are filled with wildlife and lively scenery, encouraging players to wander through forests, beaches, and open spaces while meeting other campers. As friendships begin to grow, players gradually build a sense of community within the camp.
Communication forms the heart of the experience. Players collect symbols and organize them inside a communication binder. Different symbol combinations express different meanings, allowing new conversations, activities, and interactions to emerge over time. As relationships with fellow campers deepen, their personalities and unique quirks slowly become more apparent.
The experience is designed to resonate with players of all ages. Younger audiences may enjoy the colorful world and playful exploration, while older players may feel a sense of nostalgia in the quiet moments spent walking through the woods, relaxing at the beach, or dancing with friends.
Find Your Words grew from a deeply personal place. Two fathers at Capybara Games bonded through their shared experiences of raising non-verbal children. The development process also drew inspiration from speech therapists and users of Alternative and Augmentative Communication systems.
Players can now wishlist Find Your Words on Steam ahead of its April release. Also, check out the official release date trailer below.
