Accompany Vio on her unintentional journey through various realms. Explore broken cities, pirate ships in the deepest jungle and other unreal places. Stand by her side when she makes the acquaintance of the (depressive) Death and engage with lots of explicit and ambiguous references, hommages and imitations of the big classics past (and not quite past) times.

Meet quirky characters with Vio and discover a world that doesn’t seem to have much in common with our own.

The heart beats for retro! That’s why the solo developer draws all the background graphics the old-fashioned way with paper, pencil and ink. They are then coloured digitally. All animations are hand-drawn in the classic frame-by-frame style.

A Twisted Tale extends over a total of 7 chapters. Each chapter takes Vio into a new world with its own setting, small stories and a large portion of classic point & click adventure riddles. The first chapter, which can be discovered with the release of the game, has an average playing time of 6 – 8 hours. All further chapters will take at least this amount of time and will be released as DLC.

We affectionately call it “queer cheesy trash”. The 90s FMVs had their own charm and that included exaggerated acting, exaggerated characters and a penchant for hoarding items. We want to get back to that.

Markus was recently a pretty normal average guy. He has no particular ambitions in life and keeps his head above water as a photographer of photo books of questionable quality. But when he is plagued by nightmares, he starts to investigate. And a letter addressed to him, but with the wrong surname, changes his life completely.

The blood of a time-honored family of Shadowhunters beats in his heart. And with it comes a responsibility to his fellow man. For the Shadowhunters are destined to fight demonic beings, so-called ‘shadows’. One such monster is currently killing in Vienna and has already claimed countless victims. Will Markus be up to the task?

But not only the supernatural plagues our young Shadowhunter. His publisher has big plans for a book that Markus himself hasn’t even written. Will his presence in the public eye be advantageous, or will it hinder his existence as a Shadowhunter?

Then there’s also his love life, which takes off at a most inconvenient time. There’s Claudia, the secretary, but also Ludwig, the charismatic digital designer.

And then there’s Ro. A young woman who suddenly appears everywhere the shadow is. What’s the story behind her?
