Source-derived summary

A Space for the Unbound is an adventure video game developed by Mojiken Studio and published by Toge Productions. It was released on January 19, 2023, for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, for iOS on April 4, 2025, and Android on August 10, 2026. The game is set in the late 1990s and follows Atma and his girlfriend Raya, who live in a suburban area in Indonesia, as they explore their newly attained magical abilities and deal with supernatural powers that threaten their existence.

The game director's focus was capturing the experience of growing up in Indonesia in the 1990s and preserving his memories as an Indonesian. The release was initially planned for 2020 but was delayed due to allegations of a publisher taking advantage of Mojiken Studio and Toge Productions. It received positive reception from critics, particularly on its magical realist setting and heartfelt story. A Space for the Unbound was the winner for Best Storytelling in the 2020 SEA Game Awards and a Games for Impact nominee in The Game Awards 2023.
