Play La Abadia del Crimen online

La Abadía del Crimen (1987) is famously unforgiving, and it knows it. Inspired by Umberto Eco’s The Name of the Rose, this is an isometric adventure where breaking the monastery’s strict schedule is practically a sin. You play a monk investigating murders, but first you must attend prayers, meals, and sleep on time—or face punishment. The controls are stiff, the rules merciless, and the learning curve vertical, yet there’s genius hidden beneath the cruelty. The abbey feels alive, governed by routines and secrets, and solving its mysteries is deeply satisfying. This is not a game you casually finish; it’s one you endure, master, and eventually respect. For many, it’s a rite of passage in Spanish game design and a reminder that discipline can be terrifying—even in pixel form.
