More On: Ghost of a Tale

Any Redwall fans out there? SeithGC's stealth adventure Ghost of a Tale is out now on Nintendo Switch. This game is one of the earlier crowdfunded success stories, with its genesis all the way back in 2013. Since then the game about an adorable mouse minstrel-turned-thief in search of his missing love has garnered rave reviews on PC in 2018 and on Xbox One and PS4 in 2019. The game has finally found its way onto the Switch eShop for $24.99, with a limited physical release coming soon. I've always been curious about this game and its cute-yet-gothic fantasy world, clearly inspired by the Redwall book series and the animation of Don Bluth. Maybe I'll finally pick it up on Switch.

"It's a dangerous world out there, for a little Mouse..."
 

Developer SeithCG joins distributor Plug In Digital to announce the return of the award-winning Ghost of a Tale on October 8th 2020, after a successful release on Xbox and PS4. 

For the first time, players will be able to enjoy a great looking version of the game on Nintendo Switch. Preorders open today! And a limited physical edition is coming soon.
 

Ghost of a Tale is an action-RPG game 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. 
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 fo find Merra, your true love...

Features:

Explore breathtaking scenery. This world holds many secrets, mysteries, and puzzles to be solved...
 
Be sneaky! Tilo is a minstrel, not a warrior. Use stealth to survive the dangers that await you in Dwindling Heights...
 
Get creative! There's more than one way to solve a problem. A well-aimed bottle might be used to distract an enemy, or knock a guard unconscious.
 
Dress up. The right costume will turn enemies into allies. Or just dress Tilo up, and express your own personal style...
... all to find your true love, Merra


Ghost of a Tale will be available on Nintendo Switch at 24.99$/€, on October 8th 2020. 
Preorders open today (October 1st).
A limited physical edition is coming soon.
