La abadía del crimen (The Abbey of Crime) is a computer video game programmed in 1987 by Paco Menéndez. The game was originally conceived as a version of Umberto Eco’s book The Name of the Rose. However, Paco Menéndez and Opera Soft received no reply from Eco in order to secure the rights for the name, so the game was released as La abadía del crimen. The graphics were made by Juan Delcán.
This game is a videoadventure with 3D isometric graphics, where a Franciscan friar, William of Occam (William of Baskerville in the book) and his young novice Adso have to discover the perpetrator of a series of murders in a medieval Italian abbey.
