We undertook the challenging task of localizing the tabletop game Aridnyk, a game steeped in the rich indigenous culture of the Hutsuls from the Carpathian region of Ukraine.

This project was particularly challenging due to the strict deadlines and the unique localization and LQA (Language Quality Assurance) requirements of a tabletop game. It was essential to ensure that the translated text fit perfectly within the game’s design constraints.

Cultural adaptation was another significant challenge. Aridnyk explores the traditions and folklore of the Hutsul people, who are known for their vibrant costumes, intricate woodwork, and deep connection to nature. It was crucial to preserve the cultural essence and vibe of the game. Our team worked diligently to maintain the integrity and authenticity of the original content.

The Hutsuls are an ethnic group from the Carpathian Mountains, renowned for their distinct customs and folklore. Their traditions are characterized by colorful festivals, music, and dance, reflecting their harmonious relationship with the mountainous environment. Translating these cultural nuances required a deep understanding of their way of life and beliefs.

The successful localization of Aridnyk allowed Ukrainian players to fully immerse themselves in this culturally rich and engaging game, enjoying both its educational and entertainment value. Players can now explore the mystical world of the Hutsuls, learning about their history, legends, and the mystical creatures of their folklore.

This project not only brought the game to a new audience but also highlighted the importance of cultural preservation through gaming. The meticulous localization process ensured that every element, from the game's narrative to its visual design, was adapted with cultural sensitivity and precision.
