Tale-of-Tales is an amazing game design group (group of two).  I’ve been following them for years now, and they are amazing game designers!  The majority of their games challenge what a game is, what interactivity is, and what we get out of it as an audience.  Many avid gamers with both Indie and Commercial games alike tend to be divided in how they label Tale-of-Tales’ work between a game and interactive art.

The Graveyard is a game they released in 2008:

The game lasts about ten minutes.  You navigate an old woman up a path through a graveyard.  She will sit down at the bench and a song titled “88 Lines about 44 Dead People” will play as she contemplates life on the bench.  Then, she will get up and you can navigate her back to the beginning (or through the cemetery if you choose).  For $5.00, you can buy the full version instead of the trial/demo.  The full version only adds one feature: the woman may or may not die of natural causes through the course of the game!

Here’s Wikipedia’s short article on it.

Here’s a review from Wired Magazine.

A-fuckin’-mazing.
