Abel is a game company that releases software for a wide range of home gaming platforms.

Established in 1997.

Hiroyuki Kanno, known as a pioneer of Japanese mystery game creators, was involved in the founding, and many of Abel's released titles include mystery games.

While primarily focused on home consoles like PlayStation, Dreamcast, and PlayStation 2, they also released software later on portable devices like PlayStation Portable and handheld consoles.

Oh! Mystery games mean they're like visual novels in development, right?

There are such games too! You can enjoy the story as a mystery game, and there are also bishoujo game elements, so they incorporate systems that emphasize interactions with the characters! They haven't released much for recent consoles, but they've released a lot of software for past home consoles!
