About the game
Ariel is an indie action-adventure title with simulation elements set within a grim sci-fi space-horror scenario. Players follow Ferdinand Ludec as he tries to flee from his own fortune, moving through a partially procedurally generated world that offers multiple story endings. Hunger, encroaching madness, and brutal weather are just some of the dangers along the way. Nuclear Fiction both developed and published the game, releasing it in 2024.
