ABOUT THE GAME
Held is a short narrative game about a father witnessing his child’s birth, growth, and everyday life.
As the father, players interact with their child through simple actions such as holding hands, carrying them in their arms, and supporting their first steps. Through the fleeting moments of parenthood, players experience the gradual changes in the relationship between parent and child.

Raise Your Child

Feed them, put them to bed, and squish their tiny cheeks as you spend your days together. Little by little, your child will grow, and the way they interact with you will begin to change.
 
Sometimes, Watching Over Them Is Enough
For example, when your child tries to walk on their own, you should resist the urge to help and simply stay by their side. As time goes by, your child will stop needing your help.
