Indie team Talha Kaya and Jack King-Spooner, known for their surreal, stop-motion animated games, are going for the threepeat: Their third new game in as many years is Abide, an unnerving horror-mystery set in a sinister country retreat for mentally unwell patients.
"You are staying at the St. Boniface retreat situated in the secluded and idyllic countryside," the devs wrote by way of introduction. "There are mysteries here. Gruesome mysteries." Our time at St. Boniface will be split in a day-night cycle, with social interactions, chores, and investigations preceding evenings of run-and-hide horror reminiscent of the Amnesia series.
