About Black Tabby Games

Black Tabby Games is a two-person narrative studio founded by Abby Howard and Tony Howard-Arias. Their games tell stories at the crossroads of horror, romance, and humor with a signature style of hand-illustrated art and deep branching interactivity.

In addition to her work in video games, Abby is the acclaimed cartoonist behind works like The Last Halloween, The Crossroads at Midnight, Junior Scientist Power Hour, The Earth Before Us, and many more.

Before co-founding Black Tabby Games, Tony worked in technology and media, including audience acquisition for STAT — The Boston Globe’s life science publication — and several companies you’ve never heard of. It’s unclear how much this background contributed to his work at Black Tabby Games, if at all.

Abby and Tony live in Toronto with Spoons the cat, Wednesday the snake, and Nubs the axolotl.
