Critic Reviews
Gaming Professors
By Nikola ErlebachováCreepy Tale is a creepy one-shot with a simple plot, friendly visuals, harmonious audio side and also with a few problems that slightly disturb the overall impression. The inspiration of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales is evident in the Slavic setting of the story and only enhances the overall dark atmosphere. If you can manage to arm yourself with more patience, hate jumpscars, but still want to play something horror, this title is perfect for you.

By Renan FontesCreepy Tale certainly lives up to its namesake, courtesy of superb sound design and art heavily inspired by the works of John Kenn Mortensen, but it's a title which falls apart under scrutiny. A completely silent narrative is ambitious, as is designing puzzles exclusively around visual cues, but there's barely an hour of actual content in-game. Any puzzle-solving veterans are basically guaranteed to roll credits within 45 minutes. What's worse is that while the atmosphere is palatable (with enough mild scares that feel earned), Mortensen's "influence" borders on plagiarism. He's mentioned in the staff roll for what it's worth, but under a very specific "Inspired By" credit. Regardless of any involvement Mortensen may or may not have had, the fact the game is dripping in his style does it no favours - if only because it's a blatant imitation lacking artistic integrity. Creepy Tale is fine enough on the cheap, but it won't satisfy competent gamers, nor is it a suitable introduction to newcomers given its emphasis on gore.
Nintendo Blast
By Ivanir IgnacchittiAlthough Creepy Tale reasonably represents the genre and is not a bad game, it also has nothing special. Its puzzles are too simple and its gloomy atmosphere is not enough to make the game minimally memorable.

By Jemma CassonCreepy Tale is aptly titled; it had no trouble giving me goosebumps. The gloomy atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing and the cryptic puzzles will tease your brain, bordering on frustrating at times – patience and trial and error are key attributes here. This one will likely appeal to fans of point-and-click style puzzle games with horror elements.
GameGrin
By Richard ShivdarsanDespite having a solid atmosphere and an occasional interesting puzzle, it unfortunately fails to capture the depth of the games it's replicating.
