Description
Ghost of a Tale is an action-RPG game in which you play as Tilo, a mouse and minstrel caught up in a perilous adventure. The game takes place in a medieval world populated only by animals, and puts an emphasis on immersion and exploration. It features stealth elements, disguises, conversations with allies and enemies, and quests.

You’ll be able to explore the secrets of Dwindling Heights Keep and navigate its dangers. Tilo is not much of a fighter, so stealth and nimbleness are your allies when confronted with enemies twice your size. Talk to the characters you meet and leave no stone unturned in your quest to find Merra, your true love….

About the team:

Ghost of a tale is developed by a very small team. Lionel "Seith" Gallat does 90% of the art, design and coding. Paul Gardner is the game's writer and an experienced game designer.

Great stealth adventure

It's a great adventure, and absolutely worth your time. It's more of an adventure game, with stealth elements, in a small but fleshed out area, that has secrets and interwoven paths everywhere. Everything works well together to make a fun experience.

A wonderful adventure

Let's keep it simple: Ghost of a Tale is a game that captures the feeling of being on an adventure, less as a Conan and more as a Bilbo. If this appeals to you then this game is definitely worth getting; it oozes with charm, lets you explore rather shoving in your face what you have to do and all-around feels like it was made with attention and care.

Very promising

I was sold out the moment I saw the trailer. This game simply has so much charm. The graphics are impressive and the concept is very endearing, reminiscent of The Secret of NIMH. Ghost of a Tale is quite polished for a game in development. Set in a beautiful anthropomorphic medieval world, you assume the role of a sneaky mouse named Tilo. Imprisoned for sedition and separated from your wife Merra, you must outsmart the guards on the quest to find her whereabouts. There are many collectibles in the game and the dialog is amusing and well-written. I found myself enjoying every moment of it, particularly the art. It pulls off a macro environment very well (with the exception of some extremely small roses and apples - why not make them petals and almonds instead?), which is both original and interesting. The game is playable at this stage and looks very promising. What I feel it lacks most is voice acting. The NPCs also lack variation, which I imagine we'll get later on. It seems to have a solid plot, which I look forward to exploring. I give it five stars.

Buggy

Everytime when the game looses focus (e.g. when I press ALT-TAB or some app pops up), GoaT just hangs. Happens on both my machines, 16/32 GB RAM, RTX 2060/4060ti and fast SSDs.
