DigiTales Interactive® is a small game development studio based in Saarbrücken, Germany. Our team has a diverse background in various disciplines including literature, music, marketing, pixel art, and programming. We create detective adventures that make you think and maybe even feel. More recently, we also ventured into publishing by signing The Great Sassanelli. Check out the timeline below to get the full picture.
In August 2025, DigiTales revealed its first stint as a publisher, joining forces with German indie studio Forking Paths Gardening to bring The Great Sassanelli, an interactive novel about a traveling circus in WWI, to PC and Mac in 2026.
DigiTales announced a psychological survival horror game called Unburied would be coming to Kickstarter. It is being created in collaboration with world-renowned pixel artist 6VCR, who joined the team full-time in 2022.
Half a year after its PC release, Between Horizons landed on Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X, and PlayStation 5, marking the first time a DigiTales game was fully ported in-house to all consoles.
Between Horizons was released on PC in March of 2024. It was universally acclaimed by critics and players, racking up a Metascore of 83 and 91% positive reviews on Steam, and would go on to be nominated for Best Game Design at Deutscher Computerspielpreis 2025.
In fall of 2022, DigiTales and Assemble Entertainment officially revealed their second collaboration: sci-fi adventure Between Horizons, formerly codenamed "Storyvania".
Over time, Lacuna reached a 94% positive rating on over 1.000 Steam reviews as well as a Metascore of 86. It went on to rack up multiple award wins and nominations including a nomation for Best German Game at Germany's biggest games award, Deutscher Computerspielpreis.
Following Lacuna's release on consoles in late 2021, the team began working on the prototype for their next project, nicknamed "Storyvania". It secured state funding both for its prototype and production phase, totaling over €200.000.
Lacuna was released on Steam and GOG. Within a few weeks, it managed to rack up hundreds of raving reviews from all around the world.
The Lacuna demo came out as part of the Steam Games Festival. It was downloaded thousands of times and generally very well-received. It would later be re-released as Lacuna: Prologue.
DigiTales officially announced their first game Lacuna, a narrative detective adventure published by Assemble Entertainment.
