Kabengo! Games is an independent studio based in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, bringing to life sensitive narrative worlds carried by the landscapes, legends and memory of our regions.
Based near Bordeaux, Kabengo! Games creates narrative video games with strong emotional resonance, where interactivity serves the transmission of a living cultural heritage.
Our team brings together demanding art direction and technical craft, sensitive writing and a high standard of sound design — with a simple conviction: video games are today one of the most powerful mediums for bringing a collective memory to life for as many people as possible.
"Adur: The Disappearance" is a narrative adventure game for all audiences that follows, in parallel, the nighttime flight of a six-year-old boy and the quest of his grandfather searching for him.
An intimate fable about memory and what we pass on, carried by the landscapes, history and legends of the South-West and the Basque Country.
Status: in pre-production.
1918. On the Côte des Légendes, in Brittany, an amnesiac little girl washes ashore with the early morning tide.
In the aftermath of the First World War, crossing paths with mythological figures and the scars of history, she confronts the ghosts of the present and the past, in search of her forgotten identity.
"Channig" is our next project, still shrouded in mystery — the first images are coming soon.
Living heritage — We draw on the real stories, trades and landscapes of a region to build fictional worlds that ring true.
Sensitive storytelling — Our stories speak of what we pass on, of loss, family bonds and resilience. Coming-of-age journeys told with restraint, that never force the emotion.
Accessible to everyone — Our games are designed to be played as a family, with no technical barriers or needless frustration. Like the tales that speak to every generation, our stories can be enjoyed at any age.
Studio-grade craft — Art direction, real-time technology and immersive sound are all treated with the same level of ambition as international productions.
"Adur: The Disappearance" is moving forward in pre-production.
