Our take on Ghost of a Tale
Tilo’s small size defines the experience: facing enemies much larger than him makes stealth, nimbleness, and disguises central to navigating the keep.
What is Ghost of a Tale?
Ghost of a Tale is an action-RPG set in a medieval realm inhabited entirely by animals.
It follows Tilo, a mouse minstrel who embarks on a dangerous journey to locate Merra, his true love. Players explore Dwindling Heights Keep, investigate its hidden secrets, and move through hazardous areas while gathering information. Tilo is poorly suited to direct combat, so players must rely on stealth and agility when facing foes much larger than he is. The adventure includes changing outfits, exchanges with friendly and hostile characters, and quest objectives. Its progression brings together exploration, encounters, investigation, and efforts to discover clues while staying clear of threats.
