Delve into the world of ATONE - the next title from Untold Tales
Will you hear the story written between the lines?
A sign on a rock eroded by time, the statue of an old hero, stones arranged by the gods, or the hint of a riddle.
The world of ATONE is telling its own story if you listen to it.
Inspired by Norse mythology, this hand-drawn, story-driven, rhythm combat RPG blends narrative, exploration, and music all into one special journey. Meet and converse with a slew of diverse characters, explore a haunting take on Midgard and make choices that influence your story and ending.
Three years ago, we launched our first ever title as a studio with ATONE: Heart of the Elder Tree. It was received with critical acclaim and won several awards, and we were so humbled by all the support and love for the unique Norse world we created.
Now, we have several announcements to share with you all!
New Publisher
First up, we're happy to share that we have an official publisher: Untold Tales! They've been a great partner and will support us in all efforts to bring our game to you as smoothly as possible. So go on and give them a follow! ->
Release Window
Second, we're excited to confirm that we're targeting launch in early 2023. We understand that it's not an exact date, but game development can fluctuate wildly and we don't want to promise something only to disappoint! AND, we'll also be launching on Nintendo Switch, so you can find us there if that's more your style.
Next Fest Demo Available Now
Last but certainly not least, we have a free demo for you to try as part of Next Fest! That's right, it's available now. So keep that axe sharp, you'll need it! And when you're done playing, come back and give us your thoughts. We'd love to hear them!
If you enjoyed what you played, please wishlist and spread the word, as that helps immensely to increase awareness. Be sure to follow our social channels below for all news and future updates on ATONE.
Our collection of story-loving games continues to grow. We are excited to share that we've added three additional titles to the Untold Tales portfolio with Mythic Ocean, Lifeslide, and Dr Livingstone, I Presume?!

If you could decide the evolutionary fate of the entire ocean, what choices would you make? Mythic Ocean is a narrative exploration about meeting the gods who rule beneath the waves and guiding (or misguiding) them in their choices. An engaging choice driven game with multiple outcomes, an open-world feel and relaxed pace. Every interaction you make with a character changes the course of the world and story and the , so choose wisely. Or entertainingly. In fact, try both, since this story has tons of replayability.
In Dr Livingstone, I Presume? A Reversed Escape Room, the world-renowned 19th Century explorer Dr David Livingston has sent you - his most trusted friend - a cryptic message. Something is wrong but the details are scare. It’s now up to you to venture to his mysterious and eccentric mansion to uncover the truth of what has happened. Solve a mix of intricate and diverse puzzles as you venture deeper and deeper into the rooms of the mansion. Along the way, uncover historical facts and story built around real events and people but with a few creative twists.
Lifeslide is a relaxing but also challenging adventure about guiding your paper airplane through a wonderous world of sights and obstacles. Simple controls but intricate physics mean you’ll need to master the art of gathering and preserve your momentum, using the terrain to your advantage and reacting in time. All around you in the world is the story of life, and the journey we all take through it. Additional competitive and zen modes mean there is a way for everyone.
Our friends from Hyperstrange are releasing a passion project of theirs. It’s called LOUD and it’s a wholesome, rhythm guitar arcade game fuelled by early 2000's inspired pop-punk / emo riffs and a classic coming-of-age story.
The team is releasing it first on Nintendo Switch, and just a tad later here on Steam.
Here’s the launch trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62O7Xy0ir_Y&ab_
These days, there aren’t a lot of new rhythm guitar games out there, let alone one with a story so they figured they would try fill this little gap. All the songs are custom written by them, and the story takes you on a journey of 16 year old Astrid as she goes from playing air guitar in her bedroom to signing her first deal with a talent scout.
It’s like a mix of Guitar Hero meets Life is Strange.
If this sounds like your kind of jam, check it out on the Nintendo eShop.
Or wishlist and follow the Steam page so you’ll find out when the game will launch on PC!
Thanks and hope to see you right there on the stage!

Please find the fixes notes below: 1. sometimes the player loses the spirit because when trying to put the spirit in a box it goes to another place. This error has already been found a solution, it's simple and I'm correcting it. 2. If you take the small battery to the flumye the first time you can't pick it up anymore because it triggers the dialogue and after handing it over to him it goes down across the floor. 3. Sometimes the boxes with energy remain on even without a source with spirit nearby.
