A Home Below

Feel what it’s like to be a hermit crab in the vastness of an underwater house that has been reclaimed by the sea. Climb, float, and roll through the landscape, finding your way from room to room while learning about the house’s history and its new sea-creature inhabitants. Make friends, evade predators, drift along in currents, and seek shells to change size and reach new places. Think Journey, but underwater.

A Home Below will ignite a sense of wonder and appreciation for nature by bringing to life real-world ecosystem relationships and research through a moving, cinematic gaming experience.

Blythe is our artist, a practicing sculptor and fine artist. Jess is our game designer and producer, a writer and researcher. We want to make games that are works of art – driven by visual storytelling and environmental research – inspiring wonder and curiosity about the natural world.
