The impact of climate change on our planet remains a complex issue for many to fully comprehend. Gaming has emerged as a powerful tool for raising awareness, and soon, a unique new release named Atuel will bring this message to mobile platforms.
Atuel is an innovative blend of documentary and experimental gameplay, set to launch on Android later this year. After a critically acclaimed debut on itch.io in 2022, this game takes an intriguing approach by merging real-life interviews with experts and dreamlike visuals. As players navigate the expansive pastel landscapes surrounding the Atuel River, they'll gain insights into the effects of climate change on the Cuyo desert and its inhabitants.
Given the extensive reach of platforms like Steam and Google Play, it's no surprise that developer Matajuegos is targeting these markets. Originally exclusive to itch.io, Atuel's critical success is poised to expand even further with this upcoming release.
Unfortunately, the release won't be simultaneous; Atuel will first launch on Steam before making its way to mobile later this year. While this may be disappointing for those eager to experience the game's unique blend of thought-provoking themes and minimalist visuals, the wait will likely be worth it as Atuel aims to captivate a significant audience upon its arrival on Google Play.
