Tale of Tales is Auriea Harvey and Michael Samyn’s games development studio. Both award-winning designers in their own right, the duo have been operating on the forefront of independent game design. Their latest game, The Graveyard, is actually more like a painting of a grave yard you can explore, slowly. Once inside this painting you take on the character of an old lady.
The gameplay is simple. You can walk around, sit on a bench, and listen to a song all the while contemplating the tomb stones surrounding you. The makers, Harvey and Samyn, describe it as real-time poetry – an attempt to tell a story without words.
