Our take on I, Hope
Rather than centering an adventure on fantasy conflict, racing, or grand battles, the game places a young girl’s coming-of-age story against a town overtaken by Cancer. Its central threat is tied to a real-world experience, shifting the genre’s focus toward personal struggle and encouragement.
What is I, Hope?
I, Hope is a coming-of-age adventure centered on Hope, a young girl whose town has been overtaken by Cancer.
The game presents her story as an adventure intended to combine amusement with encouragement, including for children receiving cancer treatment and people who have survived cancer. Its subject matter places a personal struggle at the center of the game rather than using the setting for an epic battle, fantasy quest, or racing scenario. The developer also states that all proceeds from the game are donated to Game Changer Charity, a nonprofit organization supporting children staying in hospitals. The game is presented as an experience that can distract players during treatment while giving Hope control within her story.
