Welcoming Three New Titles to Untold Tales!



Our collection of story-loving games continues to grow. We are excited to share that we've added three additional titles to the Untold Tales portfolio with Mythic Ocean, Lifeslide, and Dr Livingstone, I Presume?!

https://youtu.be/dYh9dC0CAJ4

If you could decide the evolutionary fate of the entire ocean, what choices would you make? Mythic Ocean is a narrative exploration about meeting the gods who rule beneath the waves and guiding (or misguiding) them in their choices. An engaging choice driven game with multiple outcomes, an open-world feel and relaxed pace. Every interaction you make with a character changes the course of the world and story and the , so choose wisely. Or entertainingly. In fact, try both, since this story has tons of replayability.

In Dr Livingstone, I Presume? A Reversed Escape Room, the world-renowned 19th Century explorer Dr David Livingston has sent you - his most trusted friend - a cryptic message. Something is wrong but the details are scare. It’s now up to you to venture to his mysterious and eccentric mansion to uncover the truth of what has happened. Solve a mix of intricate and diverse puzzles as you venture deeper and deeper into the rooms of the mansion. Along the way, uncover historical facts and story built around real events and people but with a few creative twists.

Lifeslide is a relaxing but also challenging adventure about guiding your paper airplane through a wonderous world of sights and obstacles. Simple controls but intricate physics mean you’ll need to master the art of gathering and preserve your momentum, using the terrain to your advantage and reacting in time. All around you in the world is the story of life, and the journey we all take through it. Additional competitive and zen modes mean there is a way for everyone.

Guitar Hero meets Life is Strange? You've got it.

Hello folks!

We've got a story to share with you.

Our friends from Hyperstrange are releasing a passion project of theirs. It’s called LOUD and it’s a wholesome, rhythm guitar arcade game fuelled by early 2000's inspired pop-punk / emo riffs and a classic coming-of-age story.



The team is releasing it first on Nintendo Switch, and just a tad later here on Steam.

Here’s the launch trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62O7Xy0ir_Y&ab_

These days, there aren’t a lot of new rhythm guitar games out there, let alone one with a story so they figured they would try fill this little gap. All the songs are custom written by them, and the story takes you on a journey of 16 year old Astrid as she goes from playing air guitar in her bedroom to signing her first deal with a talent scout.

It’s like a mix of Guitar Hero meets Life is Strange.

If this sounds like your kind of jam, check it out on the Nintendo eShop.

Or wishlist and follow the Steam page so you’ll find out when the game will launch on PC!

Thanks and hope to see you right there on the stage!
