The impact of climate change on our planet can be difficult to fully comprehend, which is why gaming has emerged as a powerful tool for raising awareness. Soon, a groundbreaking new game titled Atuel will make its way to Android, promising to leave a significant impact on its audience.

Atuel is an innovative blend of documentary and experimental gameplay, set to release on Android later this year following its critically acclaimed debut on itch.io in 2022. This unique game combines documentary-style interviews with experts, experimental gameplay, and stunning, dreamlike visuals. As players explore the expansive pastel landscapes around the Atuel River, they'll gain insights into the effects of climate change on the surrounding Cuyo desert and its inhabitants.

Given the vast audience accessible through both Steam and Google Play, it's no surprise that developer Matajuegos is targeting these platforms. Initially launched exclusively on itch.io, Atuel was a critical success, and this new release is poised to significantly broaden its reach.

Unfortunately, the release won't be simultaneous; Atuel will first launch on Steam before making its way to mobile devices later this year. While this staggered release might disappoint some eager fans, the game's thought-provoking themes and captivating, minimalist visuals are likely to attract a substantial audience on Google Play when it finally arrives.
