Baba Oarba

A chaotic multiplayer hide-and-seek game where one player hunts in the dark and everyone else does whatever it takes to survive.

The Studio

We make the games we wish existed.

Now What? Games is an independent game studio from Romania, built around a simple idea: create games that feel different.

We experiment with unusual mechanics, memorable multiplayer moments and worlds with their own personality. We’re not interested in following a formula just because it works, we want every project to have a reason to exist.

Our first title, Baba Oarba, takes a childhood game and turns it into a chaotic multiplayer experience where one player hunts almost completely blind while everyone else tries to hide, move and survive.

Built Around Original Ideas

We start with the question: “What would be genuinely fun to play?” Mechanics come first, and everything else is built around making those moments as memorable as possible.

Independent by Choice

Being independent gives us the freedom to experiment, change direction and build games without designing around corporate checklists.

Player-First

Games should respect the people playing them. No pay-to-win systems, no mechanics designed around frustration, and no unnecessary barriers between players and the fun.

Built With Modern Technology

We use modern game-development tools and technology to rapidly prototype ideas, build multiplayer experiences and turn small concepts into complete worlds.
