VENBA

OUT NOW PC PS4/5, SWITCH, XBOX ONE/SERIES

A unique kind tells the story of an Indian expat family in Canada, each Tamil dish representing a key moment in their time there.

Venba and her family are likewise learning to adapt – their own struggles movingly depicted in vignettes that show developer Visai Games’ gift for visual storytelling.
