Crimson Tale

Crimson Tale is a short first-person narrative puzzle game where Elizabeth takes one last action against the oppressing forces of the nobility. Avoid the sun, go back in time with blood magic and use your vampire abilities to find the golden guard, ending this oppression once and for all.

STORY

You are Elizabeth, a vampire who returns to a decaying village where the nobility has fled and the guards control the people. With Christie’s death still fresh, Elizabeth uses her powers to travel to the past, discovering the hidden fates of those connected to the village’s downfall. While she uncovers the other's past lives to change the future, her determination sets out to avenge her love and bring an end to the last of the oppression responsible for the remaining chaos.

BETWEEN PAST & PRESENT

Find a body and use your blood magic abilities to go back in time.

Anything you do here affects your current present, with some tinkering you could forge a new path and advance towards your goal.

AVOID THE SUN

Avoid the sunlight and move throughout many areas by using the shade you find around you, or think and forge your own. Some of the paths you encounter will take you on another direction depending on your actions.

USE YOUR ABILITIES

As a vampire, you have a few different abilities at your disposal. Use telekinesis to grab distant objects or carry heavy ones, use your blood time powers to return objects to a previous state or enhance your vision to see marks that no ordinary human can see.
