Rostiz’s story
It started as
a birthday present.
For my son’s birthday, I made a video game where he was the hero. His mum even made an appearance.
This year, I’m opening the workshop so other families can share that moment at Christmas.

FAQ
Good to know.
Before you begin.
Am I ordering the game now?
No. You’re only leaving your email to hear when pre-orders open. It’s free, with no commitment or payment today.
What happens to my child’s photo?
When you order, their photo will only be used to create their character. Rostiz will delete it within 48 hours, and it will never be published. Full details are on the Information & privacy page.
What will be personalised?
The hero’s appearance is created from their photo. You can also send photos of up to two other people or pets: they appear as supporting characters your child will meet during the adventure (they are not playable). The story and settings stay the same for everyone.
Do I need to choose three characters?
No. The hero alone is enough. You can add one or two loved ones or pets, in any combination, up to three characters in total.
Can their cat or dog appear in the game?
Yes. A pet can be one of the two supporting characters. They join the adventure alongside the hero, who is still your child.
Can the character be a heroine?
The concept is for girls and boys alike: a heroine or hero in their likeness. The screenshots show one game character, not every possibility.
Is the game finished?
The Christmas edition is being finalised for launch on 1 December. The screenshots show the first game, made for my son’s birthday.
Which devices will it work on?
The list of supported devices will be confirmed before orders open. Today, the game runs in a browser, with on-screen touch buttons.
What age is it for?
From 7… to 77! The adventure takes about 30 minutes to finish.
How much will the game cost?
The game will cost €29 for pre-orders, then €39 from launch on 1 December. The pre-order price will be available to everyone, not just waiting-list members.
How do I give the game?
You’ll receive a link to their personalised game by email, with a QR code to print. Slip the QR code into an envelope or a present under the tree: your child scans it to open their adventure in a browser.
Will it arrive before Christmas?
Yes. Any order placed by 22 December arrives by email before 24 December.
Do I need to send a photo of my child now?
No. You only need your email address to join the waiting list. Please don’t send any photos at this stage.
You give the adventure. Their character takes it from there.
