Narrative Puzzle Game Inspired by Persian Mythology 30 Birds Release at the End of 2024

Paris, September 26, 2024 - ARTE, RTBF, Ram Ram Games and Business Goose are proud to announce that 30 BIRDS, an adventure game inspired by Persian mythology, will be released at the end of 2024 on Nintendo Switch and PC/Mac via Steam. 


30 BIRDS is a poetic and light-hearted game that combines an oriental fairy tale with a thrilling investigation.

Zig, a young woman and mysterious detective, wanders through a mystical world of spinning lanterns to find the thirty birds that will enable her to save Simurgh, the missing patron goddess. Along the way, Zig encounters curious characters and colourful challenges. 

In this mesmerising journey, the player takes on the role of Zig as she navigates through breathtaking landscapes and solves fun and complex puzzles in an attempt to unravel the mystery of Simurgh's disappearance.

The stunning artistic direction of 30 BIRDS was inspired by a trip to Istanbul during which the two creators, Coline Sauvand and Laurent Toulouse, discovered Persian miniatures, a 15th-century Persian pictorial tradition. 

After producing a book in 2014, ‘Le Carnet d'Istanbul’, featuring a story, sketches and revisited Persian miniatures, they wanted to transcribe their experience and use their illustrations to create a video game.

The hand-painted sets in 30 BIRDS create a captivating, enchanted world where 2D and 3D complement each other in a unique way to the rhythm of the electro soundtrack. 

30 BIRDS will be participating in the Steam Next Fest from 14 to 21 October, 2024. A brand new demo of the game will be available for the event.
