TALE OF TALES

presents

IntroductIon

There is one rule in the game. And it needs to be broken.

There is one goal. And when you attain it, you die.

The Path is a short horror game inspired by older versions of Little Red Ridinghood ,

set in modern day. The Path ofers an atmospheric experience of exploration,

discovery and introspection through a unique form of gameplay, designed to

immerse you deeply into its dark themes. Every interaction in the game expresses an

aspect of the narrative. The six protagonists each have their own age and personality

and allow the player to live through the tale in diferent ways. Most of the story,

however, relies on your active imagination.

The Path is designed with accessibility in mind. There are no ticking clocks or

monsters to defeat. No hard puzzles will ever halt your progress. Most activities in

the game are entirely optional and voluntary. The player has all the freedom in the

world to explore and experience. The Path is a Slow Game .

While The Path does not contain any graphic violence or sexuality, it does allude

to these themes. The overall melancholy mood of the game and the potentially

unsettling course of events, make The Path unsuitable for children . Despite of

its origins in fairy tales, The Path is decidedly a game for the mature mind.
