You wake far from the heart of the forest – from home. Somewhere in the distance, the sound of a puppy’s bark echoes through the trees. It sounds like it needs help. You get to your feet...  Save a puppy and embark on a musical, hand-drawn adventure. Journey together to the heart of a magical forest. Run from danger and discover your powers.

As the story unfolds, the forest spirit and her puppy friend will rely on their unique abilities to protect each other from lurking danger and overcome challenges, immersing players in a truly emotional and memorable experience.

In this captivating tale, players will enjoy carefully crafted 2D hand-drawn art and animation, which brings the world of Koira to life. Koira is a heartwarming tale where you befriend and protect your new puppy from danger, enhanced by a beautiful original score that complements the poetic narrative. Traverse a musical forest, solve ancient puzzles, meet woodland creatures, and try to find your way home.

Discover your untapped powers and learn the true value of friendship.

Studio TOLIMA revealed that a playable Koira will be coming to Steam later this summer.

The trailer highlights the main theme of Koira: friendship, with glimpses of possible interactions and adventures the two enjoy as they grow closer. Play fetch, feed the puppy, traverse the forest, and overcome challenges together as a pair. You'll also see more of the game’s 2D hand-drawn art and animation as well as the musical aspects of the game: its emotive soundtrack and singing mechanic, which the spirit can use to wake the forest and interact with her new friend. Both are important parts of this dialogue-free game.

Ben Lega, Game Director at Studio Tolima, says, “We’re so excited to be a part of this year’s Day of the Devs event. To have the opportunity to showcase Koira alongside other fantastic upcoming indie games is amazing. We really hope everyone enjoys learning more about Koira.”

Koira is coming to PC (Steam) in 2025.
