Coming to the App Store and Google Play, Abalone is a hardcore strategy game that’s easy to pick up but exceedingly difficult to master.

“We were both proud and delighted to lend our support to the project and take part in the development of the Abalone app. The app perfectly captures the spirit of the board game, with its simple learning curve, its non-age-specific design and the endless fun that comes from playing with others.” Michel Lalet – Laurent Lévi.
