Art of Kapih

“A Tribute to India’s Rich Artistic Heritage!”

At 88 Games, we celebrate Indian art in a way that connects tradition and innovation, leaving a lasting impact on gamers and art enthusiasts alike.

We are immensely proud of our unique and culturally rooted art style, which we call the *Kapih Style*. This signature aesthetic is a heartfelt tribute to the rich tapestry of Indian art forms, bringing together traditional influences with innovative techniques to create something truly spectacular.

Our journey to develop Kapih Style has been driven by our desire to showcase the cultural capital of India. We’ve drawn inspiration from iconic art styles like Kalamkari, Thanjavur, Warli and Madhubani to name a few, paying homage to the masters and the intricate beauty found in India’s artistic history. Our approach is guided by the Five Pillars of Design: Shapes, Patterns, Villages, Folk Stories, and Mythologies, each adding depth and authenticity to our creative vision.

We meticulously study traditional patterns and shapes, including the mesmerizing Mandala designs and timeless Kalamkari motifs, which are known for their storytelling essence. Our art breathes life into clouds, skies, plants, rocks, and water, using a harmony of patterns and colors that reflect the vibrancy and spirituality of Indian culture.

Our commitment to blending old-world charm with modern technology ensures that every visual element feels alive and engaging. By embracing folk stories and mythologies, Kapih Style becomes a bridge between India’s past and the future of gaming art, leaving players captivated by its beauty.
