L'Abbaye des Morts won the Indie Retro News 2019 Game Of The Year Award!

Megadrive port of the game created  by Locomalito and Gryzor in 2010, it is an icon of the homebrew development. It brought back the mechanics of the videoadventures so classic in the 80’s microcomputers. A demanding game where you will have to control Jean Reymond, a  Cathar monk , to escape to a fatal fate at the hands of the Crusade knights who want to hunt him. It was originally released for PC and then ported to a multitude of systems.

In the 13th century, the Cathars, clerics who preached about the poverty of Christ and defended life without material aspirations, were treated as heretics by the Catholic Church and expelled out of the Languedoc region in France. One of them, called Jean Raymond, found an old church in which to hide from crusaders, not knowing that beneath its ruins lay buried an ancient evil.
