I would give a mixed review if that would be possible but now I must give a negative one. The game itself is good and fun. The only downside is that it is not worth the price. You can complete the base game + devils in two hours. Also the achievement for playing two or more hours is just a slap in the face. If you can get this from sale then it is totally worth it!

Storyteller is a short puzzle game with an emphasis on the player to craft stories, some romantic, some complex but overall charming.


This is a game where you piece together puzzle elements to create the story. The game takes the form of a book in which you create the story panel by panel, much like a comic book. For each puzzle you're given a set of characters and are supposed to arrange them to fit a story of the title you're given. So there is no one story in this game but a variety of mini stories to tell divided up into chapters.

The joy of this game is to play around with the characters by placing them in various panels to see what happens. Trial and error can be rewarding and entertaining.

Some of the tales will be familiar to many. Love, betrayal and jealousy fuel many of the stories. Some are your classic fairy tales to stories of a Shakespearean nature such as Romeo & Juliet.


The settings in this game are pretty straight forward and basic. You have audio level, language, fullscreen or windowed, quality and the ability to turn the narrator on or off.


The pages of the book are yellowed and look washed out in contrast to the characters (who look like decals or stickers) and have more colouring to them. Once you drop the characters into a scene they will play an animation and those animations will vary depending on their placement in the story.

The soundtrack sounds like something you would hear in a story about royalty and the narrator's voice is so well done. I kept the narrator on as I personally enjoyed his humour.


* After completing the main levels go back through the chapters to play the Devil levels (the chapter level marked with a pentagram)
* There are 31 bonus stamps to collect (for where to find these I suggest looking at one of many great community guides)
* I played the whole game with a mouse but the game does support a controller.
* To get the achievement for playing over two hours close the game and re-open it after the two hour mark for it to activate.


I enjoyed this game. It is quite short so I suggest getting it on sale. But the animations and stories can be pretty funny and entertaining. It is a really different type of game and really can not compare it to anything else I have played. So the uniqueness was very refreshing.

There are not a lot of achievements but they are obtainable without too much stress. The only one I don’t like is having to play for over two hours. It is obvious to me why that one is thrown in there for such a short game. Still it did take me close to two hours to actually finish the game (maybe a tad shy). So take that for what it is.

Overall a fun game that brings something different to the table. 📖

The ultimate quality over quantity game.

Storyteller is innovative, integrating each puzzle with a story concept in a way never done before, with high production values providing a very cute experience while solving every puzzle. It's also about three hours long.

The puzzles are fairly easy, due to the limited nature of the possible interactions. Part of the process is experimenting to discover what is possible, but the presentation is so good that there is a lot of joy in this discovery process.

I had a fantastic time with Storyteller. I wish there were more of it.
