Hela: of Mice & Magic Lets Players Explore a Swedish Forest as a Tiny Hero

A mouse-sized cooperative adventure with natural landscapes, puzzles and gentle magic. Coloured Static Press is tracking Hela of Mice and Magic as part of our independent games coverage.

What makes it worth watching?

Hela follows a small mouse helping a witch in a world inspired by northern Sweden. Its three-dimensional environments turn familiar woodland scenery into a much larger place to explore, while puzzles and cooperative play shape the adventure. Publisher Knights Peak has released a limited-time PC demo during Steam Next Fest, with support for local and online cooperative play.

Availability and what comes next

The official Steam listing gives a 1 December 2026 release date. We have not played the demo and are reporting its availability and premise.
