Creepy Tale: Some Other Place

Martin’s quiet fishing trip takes an unexpected turn when a strange creature leads him into another world. There, he sets out to find his way home and help a girl in danger.

This 2D point-and-click adventure has Martin explore eerie locations, collect and use objects, and solve puzzles by observing clues and working out how mechanisms fit together. Some areas also call for stealth as he avoids monsters.

A magical ring lets Martin affect nearby creatures, including waking them or putting them to sleep, and some puzzles use this ability. The adventure also includes timed interactions and a boss encounter, with progress divided into chapters.

Reviewers often praise the hand-drawn visuals and eerie fairytale atmosphere, along with puzzles they find enjoyable and generally approachable. Some also highlight the sound and voice work. Criticism most often focuses on the short runtime and puzzles that feel too easy; some reviewers found the story slight or the boss controls awkward.
