Able Black

You play an excellent game, but the outcome is not what players may believe. Wonder idea

Very short but very sweet. A Genuinely well written si-fi story game with complex puzzles, some that really challenged me. Definitely recommend!

I’m not usually into text based games but this was truly enjoyable and I connected with Able Black on many levels. The desperate search for connection, the emotions that isolation brought forward and the questions that all made me ponder. Excellent experience, I don’t want to called it a “game” because it is so much more. Big thank you to the developer, Skot. 5* for me, please make more.

Really entertaining, well thought out and written. I just wanted it to be longer.

I just finished playing Able Black, but I was hooked enough to experience more. I wish I knew this game earlier. It truly deserves more recognition for it is so underrated. Every element of the game was exciting; the eerie soundtrack, the dark aesthetics, the sophisticated puzzles and the simplistic design. Most importantly, the story was too intriguing. The developer should write a whole series. You can really hear the characters in your head when you dive deeper and deeper into the story. Thanks Skot. You better make more of these masterpieces in the future. :)

Sometimes a puzzler doesn’t satisfy because it’s filled with quiz after quiz, or riddle after riddle. Able Black is a prime example of how you can be entertained with the writing and text this creator has poured himself into.

Really liked it, just wish it were longer! Also, some of the puzzles got repetitive. The left notes with words ones, especially. Once you knew how to do it, they’re too easy.

Simple, excellent puzzles, but grips you somewhere deep. An excellent game!!

A stunning little game. The only negative thing I have to say is that is wasn’t long enough.

Beautiful sparse design, and gentle philosophy. Neat riddles and puzzles. A fun afternoon or two.
