Biblical Striptease Game Is Live!

I’m ashamed to admit how anxiously I’ve awaited indie developer Tale of Tale’s new game, Fatale. After all, I’m Jewish — what interest do I have in the story of Salome?

Maybe I’m not to be blamed for my morbid curiosity. Tale of Tales is known for its creepy, upsetting games and from what I understand of the parts Christianity added to the Torah, the Salome’s story is certainly both of those. She dances what passed for a striptease back in those days and then demands the head of some guy on a silver platter. Talk about heavy tipping.

Here’s what the developer has to say of the 3D adventure game:

Explore a living tableau filled with references to the legendary tale and enjoy the moonlit serenity of a fatal night in the orient. Fatale offers an experimental play experience that stimulates the imagination and encourages multiple interpretations and personal associations.
