The Darkest Tales is an indie Dark Fantasy Action Platformer developed by Trinity Team and published by 101XP. It was released on Steam on October 13, 2022 and is available for PC. In her childhood, little Alicia loved her stories and toys. Now she's all grown up and dream demons have invaded her sleep, threatening to consume her. Strapped for options, her faithful nightlight Lighty recruits Teddy Scissorpaws, Alicia's old grumpy stuffed bear, to venture into her dreams and save her before it's too late.

 The Darkest Tales (Video Game) / int_1e584efa
comment
Cruel and Unusual Death: The King of the Wolves suffocates on a giant boulder that Little Red Riding Hood jams down his throat. Sten drinks too much from the fountain of youth and age regresses until he disappears. The Little Mermaid sings so loudly that the platform she stands on collapses into the active saw-blade underneath.

comment
Super Drowning Skills: Downplayed. Teddy doesn't sink or die immediately if he falls into water, but after a short time he'll take damage from being in it. The narration in the cut-scene before The Madness implies this is due to Teddy soaking up the water and eventually becoming too heavy to stay afloat. Averted after he douses himself in water fairy dust in The Madness, which enables him to swim without taking damage.

comment
The Unfought: Unfortunately you don't get to fight the King, since he immediately calls upon the Giantess after catching Teddy and Lighty wandering about his castle. Instead both he and his wife fall to their deaths while chasing Teddy. Despite being arguably the main antagonist for The Selfishness, Sten doesn't get a boss battle either. He's instead tricked into drinking too much from the fountain of youth by Teddy and is reduced to nothing as a result.

Evil vs. Evil: Little Red Riding Hood has a seething hatred for the Clockwork Wolves, who are mindless beasts eager to devour anyone who gets lost in The Hate. However, the methods she uses to hunt them down make her little better than them, such as setting fire to a village so the wolves will burn within it and using Teddy as bait to lure them away from her. Sten wants what the other inhabitants of the Selfishness have, namely their treasure, magic fairy dust and Fountain of Youth, and forces Teddy to kill them for him so he can have the aforementioned things for himself. There's not too much sympathy to be had however: The pirates are violent thugs, the Tooth Fairies are creepy Fair Folk who steal teeth and Peter Pan uses the blood of the children he lured to the island to keep himself forever young.

Run or Die: The first two times you come across a Clockwork Wolf, Teddy won't have his scissors yet and thus has no means to defend himself. Making your only option to book it. Or, in the case of the second one, stay right where you are and watch the stupid creature fall right into a spike pit and kill itself in it's eagerness to maul Teddy. The Giantess, true to her name, is so enormous that Teddy can't possibly fight her, leading to a wild chase to escape her castle.

Spring Jump: Gelatinous springs will pop up in every level once and again. Jumping on them will take Teddy to greater heights than his normal jump or double jump abilities.

Teeth-Clenched Teamwork
 The Darkest Tales (Video Game) / int_c3648b87
comment
Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: Teddy and Lighty don't particularly like each other, with Teddy being bitter about Lighty replacing him as Alicia's defender and Lighty viewing Teddy as an old grump. They have to put aside their mutual dislike in order to rescue Alicia, though neither misses a chance to snipe at the other or make jabs whenever the opportunity presents itself.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: The third world introduces a fast talking genie named Sten, who has a distinct set of erratic arm movements. His name and body language are a clear reference to Stan from the Monkey Island series. In the same world, Teddy acquires a new outfit—Guybrush's pirate coat introduced in Monkey Island 2 Lechucks Revenge After Teddy is knighted by a statue of a wise king, the statue begins to crumble, saying he was "Not meant for human life, but to be the life essence of future memories."

No Name Given: Although it's clear who the fairy tale enemies are supposed to represent, the majority of their names are never spoken in the game.

The first two times you come across a Clockwork Wolf, Teddy won't have his scissors yet and thus has no means to defend himself. Making your only option to book it. Or, in the case of the second one, stay right where you are and watch the stupid creature fall right into a spike pit and kill itself in it's eagerness to maul Teddy.

comment
Red Herring: The Witch Cat tries to convince Teddy that Alicia may not be the innocent girl he remembers, arguing that she had her own character flaws and that a truly innocent subconscious wouldn't give birth to the horrors that he fights. It turns out that Alicia is fine, and the real problem stems from Lighty trying to corrupt her mind.

Mana: Lighty uses magical energy she calls mana to turn Teddy's weapons into light weapons, as well as heal him. Mana can be recharged either by slaying enemies or by standing in light blue light.

comment
Grimmification: As a result of Alicia's worsening mental health, the fairy tales she loved as a child are horrifically warped in her dreams, turning them a lot Bloodier and Gorier than they originally were. Red Riding Hood is a Creepy Child hunting wolves, the Little Mermaid is more of sea witch and Sleeping Beauty's sleep deprivation hasn't exactly left her in the best state.
