When you want to promote your spooky indie game, you’re in luck, the lights you borrowed for your makeshift stall keep flickering in supernatural ways. That’s what happened when we interviewed Tales from Candleforth creator Ángel Poulain at IndieDevDay, in the video below. “Tales from Candleforth is a point-and-click game that combines escape room puzzles with folk horror narratives,” the director describes from the comfort of his armchair. “This is different from the usual horror. We’re not too into jump scares and scaring people. It’s more about creating an uncomfortable atmosphere to make players feel uncomfortable while playing the game.” The story is a story about a legacy,” he continued. “We told a story about Sara, a 16-year-old girl who is going to inherit a family power that she doesn’t know she has. But just as she’s about to inherit it, her grandmother disappears. So now she wakes up and she finds out that her grandmother is gone and then she has to follow some of the steps her grandmother left her to find her before she can finally get her powers. Play the full interview to learn more about the different types of puzzles and the studio’s hopes for their first game. Tales from Candleforth is mostly complete and will be released on PC in November, during or after Season of Ghosts, and possibly on Nintendo Switch and mobile devices.
