'A Fisherman's Tale' (ALL) Comes To Oculus Quest Later This Month - Trailer

by Rainier on Nov. 14, 2019 @ 8:05 a.m. PST

Bend and twist reality in A Fisherman's Tale, a mind-bending VR puzzle adventure game in which being turned upside down and inside out is not merely a play on words.

Playing as Bob, a tiny fisherman puppet, you live alone in your tiny cabin, oblivious to the world outside. When your radio broadcasts a storm alert, you have to get to the top of the lighthouse and turn on the light! But as you try to leave your cabin with the help of some uncanny sidekicks, you realize what's waiting outside is not at all what you expected...

Playing with the incredible sense of scale unique to VR, Innerspace invented a unique VR gameplay mechanic based on the recursion principle. In a way, A Fisherman’s Tale is a co-op game - but instead of playing with others, you’re teaming up with multiple dimensions of yourself! Able to twist and bend your newfound, peculiar reality, you’ll be challenged with multi-dimensional puzzles on your journey to the core of an unusually tall tale.

What does it mean to be trapped inside a replica in an elusive virtual world? A Fisherman’s Tale at it heart is a story about breaking away from illusions to find truth. And who knows, you may learn something about yourself along the way…


“We have been amazed by the power of the Quest and we are happy to share that we did not have to make any compromises bringing A Fisherman’s Tale to the platform,” says InnerspaceVR Creative Director Balthazar Auxietre. “From the start, we knew the accessibility of the Quest would be a great fit for the game as it allows any player - VR veterans to newcomers - to jump in anywhere and at any time, turn their surroundings upside down and inside out, and solve its all-encompassing puzzles with untethered ease.”

Key Features:

  • Break more than a couple laws of physics in mind-bending VR puzzles!
  • Team up with yourself in revolutionary multi-dimensional single player co-op!
  • Meet some of the quirkiest sidekicks to have ever set foot in a VR game
  • Use your hands to pick up, throw, combine, and use all kinds of things in glorious fully immersive virtual reality!
  • Toy around with your tiny little model lighthouse, inside a lighthouse, inside a... is that another lighthouse?
  • Uncover the truth at the core of an unusually tall tale, exclusively in VR

Currently available for PlayStation VR, HTC Vive, Oculus Rift and Windows Mixed Reality, A Fisherman's Tale will arrive on Oculus Quest on November 27, 2019
