Hob is a single-player action-adventure game from Runic Games — the Seattle studio behind the Torchlight series — and a bold departure from the studio's dungeon-crawler roots into something far more contemplative and visually striking. Set on a stunning, mysterious planet in a state of crisis, Hob tells its entire story without a single word of text or dialogue: no tutorial prompts, no quest markers, no exposition. You awaken as an unnamed protagonist in a world that has clearly suffered some catastrophe, and the nature of that catastrophe, your role in it, and what can be done about it are revealed entirely through exploration and environmental storytelling.

Key Features: • Wordless narrative — no text, no dialogue, story told entirely through exploration and environment • Planetary transformation — raise, lower and reshape the world's geography using ancient machines • Vibrant alien ecology — a living world of creatures neither good nor evil, striving to survive • Mechanical arm — prosthetic replaces limb early on, unlocking traversal and combat over time • Matt Uelmen soundtrack — composer of Diablo I + II delivers atmospheric, melancholic score
