Here is an overview of the game, via Feardemic:

About

Tales from Candleforth is a collection of fairy tales that were written on top of a forbidden book many years ago to hide its content. Years later, the dark text is bleeding out and onto the pages of the tales, mixing with them and twisting the stories. The tale is about to begin… In this first tale, we’ll meet Sarah, a 16-year-old girl left alone to run the family apothecary. Sarah’s grandmother went missing a while ago, but one day, she finds clues that she might still be alive. As Sarah discovers new powers that only the women in her family can inherit, she adventures into a world of occultism, mystery, and horror to uncover the secrets her family is hiding and discover the part she plays in all of it.

Tales from Candleforth: an immersive experience

Tales from Candleforth is a survival-horror detective game that offers a unique twist on the traditional horror genre. Unlike other survival-horror games where the player must navigate through frightening environments and avoid monsters, Tales from Candleforth allows the player to turn off the survival and horror elements if they choose to do so. This flexibility in gameplay is a significant departure from the typical horror game experience, where the fear and tension are integral to the gameplay. In the game, the player takes on the role of a detective investigating various cases in a town filled with dark secrets and sinister characters. The game's setting is reminiscent of classic detective stories, with the player gathering clues, interviewing suspects, and solving mysteries. However, the game also incorporates elements of survival horror, with the player needing to manage their resources and protect themselves from the killer that is stalking them.

One of the most interesting aspects of Tales from Candleforth is its ability to be played without the survival and horror elements. The player can turn off jump scares and simply focus on solving cases in detective mode. This mode allows the player to explore the game's world without the fear of sudden death or frightening encounters, making it a more accessible option for those who prefer a more straightforward detective experience. The game's story is built around the player's ability to investigate and solve cases, with each case presenting a new mystery to unravel. The game's atmosphere is tense and foreboding, with the player needing to be vigilant to uncover the truth behind the sinister events unfolding in the town. The game's visuals and sound design are designed to create an immersive experience, drawing the player into the dark world of Candleforth. Overall, Tales from Candleforth offers a unique blend of detective work and survival horror, allowing players to choose how they want to experience the game. Whether they prefer the thrill of solving mysteries or the fear of navigating a haunted environment, Tales from Candleforth provides a compelling and engaging experience for fans of both genres.

The gameplay in Tales from Candleforth revolves around a folk horror 2D point-and-click experience with puzzles and escape room mechanics, all set in a village that narrates fairy tales. Players engage in detective work, investigating cases, gathering clues, interviewing suspects, and solving mysteries within a dark and foreboding atmosphere. Additionally, the game offers the unique feature of allowing players to turn off survival and horror elements, providing a more straightforward detective experience if desired. The game's immersive visuals and sound design enhance the overall experience, drawing players into the eerie world of Candleforth as they navigate through the challenges presented in the game.

Thess vs Forever Demos

It’s the Steam Next Fest again! It’s throwing me a whole lot of different sorts of things at the moment; last time I went mental over the demos was when I was up to my eyes in DREDGE, so it was giving me a lot of eldritch horror. The last few weeks, though, I’ve been playing Wylde Flowers, so I got cutesy farming sims and, because there are only so many of those, I got puzzle games too. Probably because of my daily dose of A Little To The Left. So here we go!

Venba: I heard about this one from a Guardian article ages ago, so it’s been on my wishlist a long time. It’s a cooking sim sort of thing (so it ended up being suggested to me both because it was on my wishlist and because I’ve been poking at Cook, Serve, Forever a bit lately), and has some story behind it, and there was not enough demo in my demo. I mean, yes, it was enough to let me know that yes, I want it. It was just one of those moments of “Noooooooo I’m not ready for it to be over yet!” So that one hit the top of the wish list pretty quickly.

Street of Secrets: This one’s a hidden object game along the lines of A Building Full Of Cats, from a publisher / dev team that apparently focus mostly on jigsaw puzzle type deals and hentai. Which ... I mean, okay, but give me cute relaxing hidden object games. That went high up on the wishlist pretty fast too.

Viewfinder: This is another “messing with the set dressing” puzzle and walking simulator kind of thing. First person, so I have to be careful with it, but some of the mechanics are really clever. I mean, it’s a “mess with reality a bit so you can proceed” sort of thing, so yeah, clever. Another one that is Much Want.

Word Factori: Not sure what to make of this one. It’s basically this little thing where you can put a whole bunch of letter-generating factories together to make ... well, letters and whole words. It’s cute, but I don’t know if it’s really my kind of Zen.

En Garde!: This one’s ... cute. Interestingly tactical RPG that’s mostly about fencing. Just involves a lot of blocking and stun-locking and gets a bit busy for what I personally can handle. I’d recommend it to others, though. Just I don’t think I’d get on well with it long-term. It’s still on the wishlist, but quite low down; it’d be a game for when I’m having a really good day.

Logic Town: You know those logic puzzles where you get a grid and have to determine who lives where and got what pet or whatever? Well, that’s the mechanic, but with a somewhat different layout. You get clues and use them to determine what belongs with whom, whether by being directly told or by process of elimination. This was another one that I was not ready for it to be over when the demo was done. And it doesn’t even have a solid release date - just “2023″. ...But I want it noooooooow.

Quilts & Cats of Calico: This one stays low down on the list. It’s cute, but complicated. Basically involves putting quilts together with matching of colours and patterns, and getting extra points by attracting cats with specific matches. Adorable, but a little complicated for the Zen kind of thing I’d want it for.

Tales from Candleforth: Another hidden object puzzle game sort of thing, but another one where it needs work before release. I’m fine with having to poke around to find out what you need to do, but one single solitary clue might be nice when you’re dealing with a dismembered doll-baby with flowers growing out of its head and a day / night mechanic that makes some of the flowers bloom and some wilt and at least knowing the objective might have been nice... But it’s only got “coming soon” as a release date so there’s time, I guess.

That’s about all for the moment. I did one for a farming / life sim kind of thing called Wholesome Out and About, but it wasn’t so much a demo of the game as a look at the character customisation process. Which was fun but didn’t tell me much about what the game is actually like. But that one’s TBA and struggling for money to finish up so I guess I get it. So it’ll sit and gather dust at the bottom of my wishlist for awhile, I figure. I still have something called Fall of Porcupine and a first look at House Flipper 2, not to mention a few others that have been sitting in my Demo collection for awhile, but not tonight. It’s late, I’ve had a hard week, and I have shit to do tomorrow, so that’s enough for one day. Besides, I found a whole lot of good ones, and some even come out next month!

...I take my victories where I can find them.
