About

meroxis is an independent game studio. Its current project is AKAM: Shadows of Zagros, a realistic first-person survival game set in the mountains of Iraqi Kurdistan, created, directed and developed by meroxis in Unreal Engine 5.

How we work

  1. Real captures only

    Every image and clip we publish comes from the engine, from the build as it is that day.

  2. One place at full quality first

    We finish one corner of the valley properly before we build the next.

  3. Tested as we go

    Game rules are covered by automated tests, and every change is checked in play.

  4. Respect for the setting

    The Zagros, its villages and its people are drawn from life, not from clichés.
