Why it matters: Nomad: The Legend of Zarqa pulls one of pre-Islamic Arabia's most enduring myths into the action roguelite space, a genre that has been almost exclusively defined by Western and Japanese folklore. It is also a test case for whether state-supported Saudi indie projects can land authentic regional storytelling on Steam at a global scale.
