Let’s start with Tatteltail’s product copy as seen on its Steam page.
This, I think, is where the game truly shines clues have been carefully dropped throughout it (and elsewhere) that tell us a great deal, if only we look closely enough to find them.
But the bigger question - the bigger story - is about why Mama Tattletail was banned, and exactly what happened to set off the events seen in Tattletail. That much is apparent from the game’s plot on the most surface of levels. I was in high school by the time the first iteration of the Furby was released, so, due to having aged well out of its demographic by the time it arrived, I missed that particular It Item toy train a few years earlier, however, I was exactly the right age for the Tamagotchi’s original release, so I understand both the appeal and the horror of taking care of a pet that looks real, but isn’t - which, of course is what grounds Tattletail’s story.Īt its core, Tattletail is a classic killer robot tale. You play as a child thought to be between around eight and 10 years of age, first unwrapping their Christmas present - a Baby Talking Tattletail, produced by fictional toy company Waygetter Electronics (also the name of the development team who created the game itself) - early, then trying to survive until Christmas morning as they’re menaced by a bigger, scarier version of the Furby-like toy, which was previously banned for reasons unknown: Mama Tattletail. 28, 2016, Tattletail takes place over the course of several nights leading up to Christmas 1998. Released with no prior announcement or any sort of fanfare on Dec. It took a lot of research and a lot of thinking, but here’s what I’ve got. I’ve got a pretty solid theory about all that.
