What Evangeline is

Evangeline is an adventure game developed by Raconteur Games and released in 2017. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only. It runs on Unity.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Evangeline is a short story of love and connections, and was inspired by the loss of one of the game developer's, Nicholas Laborde, grandfather. Set in a monochrome neighborhood, Evangeline uses color as a primary mechanic to guide players through the world. Evangeline has been created with dedicated color blind accessibility options after a gif of Evangeline’s color mechanic was posted to reddit and imgur in early December, and went viral with 1.6 million views. The game has been designed as a fifteen-minute story that the developers hope will help players connect with their loved ones, while there is still time.
