The Darkest Tales is a side-scrolling adventure platformer in a fantasy setting. In the game you will become the companion of the teddy bear Teddy, who is forced to go on a dark journey to save his owner Alicia from the world of dreams and perverted childhood fantasies. Who, if not a long-forgotten dusty toy, should fight for the life of a grown-up girl? As you progress, characters well known from childhood await you, but it’s unlikely that this meeting will be at least somewhat joyful: the gingerbread men are eager to gut all living things, Sleeping Beauty clearly hasn’t gotten enough sleep for the last couple of centuries, and the Little Mermaid looks more like a sea witch than an innocent child of the seas.
