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.
Wishing everyone a joyous & lovely Christmas time ahead!

FALL into SAMUDRA and discover unbeLEAFable creatures as you explore the surreal underwater seascape with Trip 🍁
Leaves floating in the air is pretty, but what’s floating in the sea may not be as good-looking. The plastic waste emergency in the maritime country of Indonesia makes for severely polluted seas and oceans.

Welcoming Three New Titles to Untold Tales!
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?!
https://youtu.be/dYh9dC0CAJ4
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.
Wishlisting and following these really helps us and the developers out!
Be sure to drop us a comment below if you've played any of the titles listed above.

Team Untold Tales
🎉60% OFF during The Nightmarket Festival 2022!🎉
SAMUDRA is participating in The Nightmarket Festival 2022, and is 60% OFF until Aug 8!
As first-time developers from Jakarta, Indonesia, our team is super proud to be a part of Nightmarket Festival 2022 - the first-ever Steam sales event focusing on promoting games from the SEA region, breaking cultural barriers, and raising awareness for the region’s gaming scene.
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!
