　　Path Out is an episodic game. In this very first chapter of the adventure , Abdullah recalls life before the war, a family decision that led to his departure and the perilous journey from his hometown Hama to the Turkish border through the war-torn Aleppo province. In its final version of up to five episodes, the game should take the player on a journey from Syria through Turkey, Greece and the Balkan until he finally arrives at his destination (and current whereabout) in Central Europe.

　　Path Out is a collaboration between Abdullah Karam, the developers of Causa Creations, Wobblersound and the Austrian-American graphic designer Brian Main.

　　Press voices:

　　Path Out's first episode is a straightforward but eye-opening work. - Edwin Evans-Thirlwell, Eurogamer.net

　　... one of the most honest & clever games I've ever played, by & about a Syrian refugee. - Rami Ismail, Twitter

　　Yet in asking a person to assume his place in a game, Karam makes his story engaging on an individual level, and his appearance in the videos further humanizes his story, especially through his humor... - Allison Meir, Hyperallergic.com
