Mīharo: Escape the Arcade
Our flagship digital game and proof of craft.
Escape the Arcade — a digital co-op adventure for whānau.
A two-player co-op adventure you play from home on two devices. Mīharo proves the Iconic Games thesis: the mechanic carries the learning, the teamwork, and the story.
Designed so the play does the work.
Mīharo is built around co-operation, observation, and shared problem-solving. The game is not a wrapper for learning; the game is the learning experience.
Gather your whānau
Two players join on two devices — same room or remote.
Enter the story
Step into a rich narrative with characters, clues, and hidden mysteries.
Solve together
Work as a team to share information, unravel puzzles, and progress through the story.
Unravel the ending
Every path leads to a finale — but only the most observant teams discover the full truth.
Built for your whānau.
Whether you're gathered at home or playing from different places, Mīharo brings two players into a shared story where progress depends on communication and teamwork.

Mīharo draws on Te Ao Māori, rich storytelling, and puzzle design to create a co-op game that feels uniquely Aotearoa. It is the digital proof point for our wider work: when the mechanic carries the learning, players remember what they did.
Created in Aotearoa, Mīharo shows how Iconic Games turns play into connection, confidence, and shared discovery.
