Set in the early 1970's, the player, a housekeeper, visits week- by- week and slowly discovers the role of the apartment's eccentric occupant in the civil war — and her own role in his life — as the city erupts around them.

The former philanthropist has been living a secluded life after a military coup had stifled the arts and culture that once aroused his passions. The thoughtful attention of his housekeeper awakens a new love for his country and his people in him. But the ruthless government will not be defeated with a velvet glove. Maybe she can convince him to join the violent resistance movement that terrorizes the capital.

Against the sunset-lit backdrop of a war-torn metropolis, two hearts meet in a fast-paced thriller. Your investigation of a person's belongings creates a level of intimacy never far away from romance. It is up to you, however, to decide how the relationship evolves. Will you be a lover? A fighter? A friend or a traitor?

We're very excited to announce that Sunset will be premiering at Kill Screen's Two5six Festival's arcade in Brooklyn just a few days before its official release on the 21st May 2015.

One half of Tale of Tales, Auriea Harvey, explains, "It’s been exciting discovering the place that we’ve invented. As we put the final media in the game and play with it all, at last we’re able to feel the connections between the characters in Angela’s daily life - even though you never meet them, you feel like you have.”
