Sketch Tales: The Imagination is Mightier than the Sword

Sketch Tales, developed by Kiev-based team 8D Studio, is an immersive action roguelike in which what you draw literally comes to life. The game is set in the vast and monochromatic Sketchy Lands, where all the colors have been stolen, and it’s up to you to be the hero and get them all back. The gameplay centers around a unique drawing magic: Whip up weapons, create creatures, and use your imagination to explore a living, breathing world with hidden mysteries and treasures.

Founder of 8D Studio Alex Sytianov reveals that Sketch Tales is designed to give players the freedom to create a world that will look exactly the way you draw it. Whether you’re in the mood for cute castles and pink ponies, or you feel like a gruesome battle, the choice is yours. Violence is customizable too; you can either hack and slash your foes or opt for a less gory route depending on your ethics and playstyle. So draw your sword- literally – and let the magic unfold!

Sketch Tales is expected for release in 2015 for PC and tablet devices. For the latest news don’t forget to check out the official website and like Sketch Tales on Facebook. What are your thoughts on the game? Do you believe there’s an artist deep inside all of us?
