New VR game ‘The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets’ coming this year (E3 NEWS)
Fast Travel Games, known for award-winning VR action/adventure Apex Construct, has today announced their next title: A heart-warming, interactive tale for VR called The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets. In the game, you get to help your grandfather solve the mystery of the stolen pets by exploring miniature worlds crafted from the ground up for VR. Use a hairdryer to melt snow in a wintery landscape! Search the wreck of a pirate ship partially hidden under the surface! Every world is unique, full of playful interactions, joyful puzzles and colorful life.
James Hunt, Creative Lead on The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets, explains his vision: “The Curious Tale started as a passion project of mine and is now being created by a small but dedicated team at Fast Travel Games. I wanted to make a game where players could take their time and marvel at the details in the environments, enjoy the music, engage with the many interactive elements in each world and solve light puzzles at their own pace to proceed – a kind of experience I felt has been missing in VR.”
The Curious Tale of the Stolen Pets will be released in 2019 for Oculus Quest, Oculus Rift, PlayStation VR, Valve Index, HTC Vive & Windows Mixed Reality.
