Towertale

Towertale is a 2D action game about four characters who climb an ancient tower and fight its guardians. According to legend, the tower was created by an ancient being, and anyone who defeats every guardian and reaches the top may make the ultimate wish: the ability to change their fate. Many people have attempted the climb over the past 100 years and disappeared. Now Lionel, Faindrel, Lord Snicklefritz and “Dark Echo” have come to challenge their fates and uncover the mystery at the summit.

Four intertwined stories

You play through four storylines, each showing a different character’s perspective and motivations for entering the tower. Choices made in one character’s story may affect what happens in the others, and their fates intertwine around the prize at the top.

Lionel is the first prince and heir to the throne of the Lionhead Kingdom. Faindrel comes from Ashelm, a forgotten civilization; enslaved by humans as a child, she was rescued by Alywyn the Red, a vigilante who fights for justice. She seeks power to rid the world of evil and end all wars. Lord Snicklefritz is a rabbit-folk from the Sect of Colors who has mastered magic in every element. After the four leaders sensed a source of malice around the tower, they tasked him with investigating it. “Dark Echo” is an unknown assassin who calls himself the “Son of Darkness”; he uses catchphrases such as “Get eaten by darkness,” thinks he is the best and has unknown true intentions.

Fight your way up

You battle bosses across 12 levels, facing 17 fightable bosses designed with multiple phases. The game has four playable characters, each offering different ways to play, and includes over 120 story cutscenes, 25+ CGs and 34+ music tracks featuring boss, character and story themes. Your journey can lead to multiple endings.
