Different Tales is an indie studio founded in June 2018 by two experienced game developers, Jacek Brzeziński and Artur Ganszyniec, with the help of Walkabout Games.
Over the last dozen years, we worked on fantasy franchises with a cult following, mobile games for the mass market, failed artistic experiments, critically acclaimed products about killing people—the whole spectrum of the fast-paced game industry.
We are ready to tell other stories. Stories rooted in the common human experience. Stories that you discover at your own pace. Stories with the potential to bring about change.
