About Horror Tale: A First-Person Horror Adventure

Horror Tale is a scary first-person horror adventure game for all ages, set in the town of Lakewitch where children have been going missing for a long time. The mystery of who the kidnapper is, why they are taking children, and where those children disappear to sits at the heart of the story. In this episode, your friend Harry arrives with a plan to protect you and the kids of your neighborhood from the kidnapper while you wait for your parents to return. Together, the two of you work to fortify a treehouse against the threat closing in around you.

One scene shows a blue and green treehouse with a steep pitched roof sitting atop a thick tree trunk, a wooden ladder attached to its side. Another scene places a red barn with a corrugated metal roof beside a tall, rusted metal windmill under a sunset sky. Several scenes show a character in a grey hooded sweatshirt wearing a white mask with long rabbit-like ears.

Along the way, puzzles, sudden moments of fear, screams, unexpected twists, and plenty of fun fill the journey. The game presents a mysterious and fascinating story, a scary antagonist, interesting characters, nice stylized graphics, five diverse locations, and an original author's soundtrack.
