Paris, France - June 11th, 2025 - Humble Reeds is delighted to announce Heidi's Legacy: Mountains Calling, a cozy simulation adventure set in the heart of the Swiss Alps. Revealed during the recent Wholesome Direct, it blends the serenity of mountain life with immersive narrative and intuitive, cozy mechanics. Discover a hand-drawn world where caring for goats, helping villagers, and living close to nature unfolds into a story of self-discovery.
Play as Adèle, a young woman who leaves the noise of the city behind in search of something more meaningful. Each morning begins with soft light over the mountains followed by your goat companions waiting as you rise to tend them. The villagers welcome you as you find your purpose in a place that moves at its own, patient pace.
Heidi's Legacy is a gentle tale shaped by care, for animals, for craft, and for the people around you. Inspired by the beloved Heidi novels, a cornerstone of European literature, the game reimagines the timeless story through a modern lens.
“Heidi's Legacy invites players to discover that even the simplest routines can hold unexpected depth,” said Humble Reeds. “We hope players feel the pastoral heart and thoughtful care we've poured into this journey.”
Key Features
-
Care for Your Goats: Guide your goats through blooming meadows, help them find the best flowers to graze, and keep them happy with toys and attention. In return, they'll provide milk and wool, which are precious resources for the village's revival.
-
Craft Mountain Goods: Use what nature provides to create artisanal products like cheese, wool clothing, herbal remedies, and wooden crafts. Trade or share these with villagers to help improve their homes and livelihoods. Every choice helps shape your relationship with the community.
-
Explore the Mountains: Wander across lush valleys, quiet forests, and high-altitude lakes. Herd goats, forage for herbs and mushrooms, and fish in peaceful alpine waters. As you aid the village, you'll unlock new abilities that make it easier to climb, leap, and uncover parts of your world.
-
Shape the Village's Future: Through branching dialogue and personal choices, you'll support villagers in rebuilding not just their homes but their lives. Will you embrace slow living or push for bolder change? Stay cozy within the village or open up to what lies beyond?
-
Cozy and Unhurried: There are no timers, strict goals, or negative consequences. Embrace slow living and mindfulness as you set the pace, guiding Adèle and her community through a world where time flows when you're ready.
