Booms. Explodes. Shatters. The usual platforming stuff is all present here in The Storytale on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. It’s just this time, in this fairytale, nobody will ever get hurt.
The Storytale is a one-person love affair, created and published by one Maxim Nuriev. Priced at a mere ÂŁ4.19, this platforming adventure focuses all thoughts on the adventures of a warrior prince and sorceress princess, delving deep into the archives of gaming to provide a warm, sweet tale.Â
It’s a platformer at heart and as you fall into the shoes of a daring prince on a journey of redemption and rescue, you’ll discover stages full to the brim with all manner of evil oddities – goblins stumble around, spikes lay in wait, traps prepare to spring and numerous puzzles are ready to test your mind.
It’s also a world in which you’ll get to meet numerous other folk though, stopping for a chat whilst in and amongst the madness. Expect to be gifted spells and magic, weapons to fight back any hordes and the opportunities to float through the air, walk through walls and more. On the face of it there are a ton of different elements on working together and we seriously hope Maxim has been able to pull off each bit

You can also pick it up on Steam, where it’s been available for a couple of years already – the positive reviews it has garnered there leave us with high hopes.
