Venture Through

Wisdom’s Domain

As fewer warriors answered her call through the ages, Wisdom’s Domain was overrun by emissaries who raised Baetyls and strongholds in allegiance to the Adversary they serve. Nine strongholds stand across the Domain, eight of them held by an emissary. You travel the Domain, lay siege to what has been built there, and face the one who holds it, stronghold after stronghold, until only the Adversary remains.

Battle Against

The Pawns and Emissaries of the Light

Following the orders of their Master, the Pawns and Emissaries of the Light have invaded Wisdom’s Domain, attempting to claim it as their own. They built strongholds, erected Baetyls and have vowed to protect them even if it meant perishing at the hands of the called.

Journey Alongside

Wisdom Who Fights Beside You

She is not a follower who trails behind you. Wisdom fights at your side with her own gifts and her own judgment, opens the way where the Domain has closed it, and speaks the words that carry you from the first step to the last stronghold. Her voice is drawn from Proverbs — and in the Den of the Wolf, where she cannot follow, you will feel every lesson she taught you.

AAA Quality 3rd Party Assets

Prebuilt Parts Assembled
into our Signature Look

We draw on the vast library of Unreal Engine 3rd Party assets bought from Fab.com, Cosmos by Laetres, KitBash3D, Quixel Megascans and more. Every pack is a starting point, not an asset flip or a shortcut. Our environment artist takes the pieces, assembles them and art directs each set until the result matches the look and feel we set out to achieve with Wisdom’s Domain.

Questions

What You Might Be Wondering

Windows (PC), via Steam. Nothing beyond PC is confirmed.

Our goal is December 2027 but if the need to delay arises, no later than March 2028. The game is in active development, well past the “Figuring things out phase” with its foundational codebase and Modular framework locked. Now we just need to scale our 25 minute demo to a 10 hour experience. Wishlist on Steam and you will be notified the moment the date is locked.

Our plan is to release it at $20 USD on digital storefronts.

By Definition, Most certainly Yes, but there are some caveats. The entire premise of the POTSA: The Pursuit of wisdom is built on merging Wisdom’s call in Proverbs 8–9 with Paul’s call for believers in Christ to engage in spiritual warfare in Ephesians 6:10–18.

Every Weapon of Warfare and every Spiritual Gift links back to a passage of Scripture, and as of September 2026 a fifth of Wisdom’s written dialogue is word-for-word quotation of Scripture.

Yes — Fight the Good Fight is a free UEFN prototype built to test design concepts for this game.

Single-player, with Steam Achievements, Steam Cloud and Family Sharing. English interface, audio and subtitles.

We have not used, and do not plan to use, any generative image, video or 3D modeling tools in the development of this game. No Nano Banana, no GPT Image, no Grok, no Tripo, no Meshy. Every visual element in the game, from concept art to 3D models to particle effects, was either custom made by our contract and freelance partners or bought from an asset store such as Fab.com, Cosmos by Laetres or KitBash3D. Every environment you walk through, every weapon you swing and every enemy you face was authored by a person.

AI coding tools, in particular Claude Opus models, are used on the programming side of things. The game’s foundational codebase was hand written by Xavier A. between October 2024 and May 2025, but with the advancement of AI coding models we now use them heavily there. Wisdom’s C++ code and her companion logic, the systems that decide how she flies beside you and when her projectiles explode, were done almost entirely by AI.

AI is not used, and is strictly prohibited from being used, in the scripting or ideation phase of any Kedoshim Studios property, from Intercession to Parables of the Set Apart.

Everything on this Website that is not artwork, an Unreal render, a portfolio element or crucial text like this paragraph was generated by Claude, including this landing page.
