The Darkest Tales

The Darkest Tales is a hardcore platforming title where you'll play as a forgotten teddy bear. Your owner, Alicia, is trapped in a never-ending nightmare that you must rescue from.

The game is set in a distorted fairytale world where you'll be fighting rubber ducks and exploring a giant's castle in the clouds. Other fairy tale creatures and beings include the bloodthirsty gingerbread men, a Sleeping Beauty that's a couple centuries behind on her sleep, and a Little Mermaid that looks like a sea witch. To fight them off, you'll use a repurposed pair of scissors as a melee weapon, a bow that shoots needles, and a grappling hook that bypasses deadly traps. It's not much, but it'll have to be enough to save your owner.

The Darkest Tales is out now on PC, Xbox consoles, and Nintendo Switch.
