Discover a conspiracy amongst the upper echelons of society alongside former detective Judith, while visiting real locations in a comic-inspired look.

The story of Hauma unfolds in a thrilling, comic-inspired visual style that only amplifies the unique narrative elements. Hauma challenges players to master the art of deduction and uncover a harrowing conspiracy perpetuated by the city’s upper echelon.

In Hauma, players will step into the weary, well-trodden soles of Judith, a former detective being roused out of retirement by the suspicious goings-on of Munich's upper class. While tracking down and interrogating the city’s cabal, explore real-world locations displayed in a distinctive, graphic-novel art style, discovering pieces of hidden history and using these clues to probe the mystery within.

Collect items, solve puzzles, and overcome dialogue riddles as players make their own investigative deductions using the “mindboard," a unique characteristic of the game that functions as an inventory containing items, thoughts, and other clues necessary to decipher the dark secret of the city’s underbelly.

Play the free prologue, which takes place before the events of the main game, and help Judith solve the mysterious case that almost cost her her life.
