About This Game

Unsettled by a strange call on the intercom, Carl hastily takes the elevator down. When the doors open, he realizes he is not where he should be. An uncanny, strange yet familiar place lies before him.

ABEL is a narrative and contemplative walking simulator, telling the story of Carl, a man overrun by sadness and grief. Explore liminal spaces, manipulate objects and delve into the traumatic events that changed Carl's life forever.

ABEL is a student project, developed by a 5-persons team from CNAM-ENJMIN, in France. This short experience should last around 15 minutes. For an optimal experience, we strongly advise to use headphones and to play in a quiet setting.
