About this game

Held is an hour-long interactive story about a father witnessing his child's birth and growth, created by a father of three.

Carry your child in your arms, hold their tiny hand, and support their first steps through the fleeting moments of parenthood.

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.
