Tale of Tales


Tale of Tales

This is a games studio for the thinking consumer, their main deal is to create games as unique and beautiful as they are engaging and poetic. You will not find many commercial blockbusters or mass media violence in their stock of games, but it doesn't matter. For Tale of Tales, its quality not quantity that rules the day.

Personally...
I have never played any of Tale of Tale's Games, however they are very frequently referenced in several publications that I read on an almost religious basis. They are artists in a world of design and seem to be making quite a go of it. After studying their website and several review sites I have decided to try a few of their games at least, though I will reserve judgement until after then. I like what they are trying to do in the industry, but it is not the path I will be taking I think. I will edit this after I have played their games.
