- Storyteller Part 3 - and the detective lived happily ever after. This is a great game, I totally understand why people want more of it. I also want to play more of this game, so I will gladly wait for it to get the update it deserves.

Thoughts on Storyteller, sort of a review: The game's length was fine, even with cost factored in. I would compare it to Gorogoa, another innovative puzzle game with an identical length and price tag. I don't care about total game time, but I do care about how long a game can make me feel something. Storyteller gave me a lot of good laughs due to the unexpected interactions between characters and the absurdity of the situations. Even though the game only lasted 2 hours, it was 2 hours of pure comedy, which is much more than many other "funny" games have to offer.
While the comedy and general premise delivered, I didn't get much puzzle solving satisfaction nor enjoyment from creativity, despite this game being more than capable of nailing those aspects. The puzzles only started getting difficult when 8 panels were introduced, and the easier puzzles had a lot more railroading than I had hoped. By railroading, I mean that there were many separate puzzles that basically had the same goal, but you were only given the tools to reach that goal one way in each puzzle. I would have preferred that several puzzles were merged into one, so you could use your creativity to solve the puzzle in the way you wanted, then be offered the opportunity to find the other solutions by means of bonus objectives. The game was too scared to give more than one bonus objective per puzzle and strangely replaced the jester hats (previously denoting bonus objectives) with plain dots. What purpose did that serve? I thought the jester hats had good personality.
Another letdown was that there was nothing unlocked after completing all the puzzles, despite being lead to believe that there would be. You would think that a game about storytelling would understand that establishing a locked page would foreshadow that there's bonus content. The player is gleefully anticipating bonus content throughout the entire game, only to have that joy stripped away by the disappointing reveal of nothing.
Still, playing the game was both fun and satisfying. There was never a single moment (except Waiting For Godot) that I was displeased with the game's logic, and the main mechanic is so fun to use that I can't be too angry. I greatly hope that an update with more levels comes out one day, and if it does, I will be the first to play it.
Overall Rating: 7/10 (Very Good)
I rate it 6/10 personally as I like more complicated puzzles for example, can of wormholes, it is a game that introduces so many new mechanics and sometimes even more than one mechanic per puzzle
I aint reading all that
jk i just did, I would say that it is a good game to take up a couple of hours. The no unlocks is a bummer there ahould be some sort of level creator of challenge lecels that you unlock after completing the game
@@legitelf0058 at the very bottom is the summary (aka what he rated the game)
You can see on the back of the book it says "Tome 1" so the creators will probably release an update or sequel or DLC or something similar that would make more books, I don't think storyteller is over just yet.
this game has so much depth but is so short
the way the characters have personalities is amazing, like how the baron would push practically anyone off the cliff for fun, or how between edgar, lenora and isobel, isobel is the only one who would poison from only having a broken heart.
i just wish there was a teensy bit more content at the end
I agree, this game has too much potential to be this short. Let's hope there might be some future updates or expansion/dlc.
i think the game ending with "storyteller tome 1" on the back of the book means there is more content ahead
@@devilbowser253 eh could be waiting a few years for that, if it ever comes- the Dev' started working on Story Teller 13 years back- released the first Demo 3 years back, and released a second demo (THAT WAS ALREADY AS LONG AS THE "COMPLETED" GAME) 2 years back. I suspect he either gave up, or ran outta cash and had to cash in- given how it's turned out.
@@crazyabe4571 I wonder if they hard coded a lot of the puzzles. If not, future puzzles might be a lot easier to make possibly.
i don't remember writing this comment...
They removed a lot from the demo. However, that martini interaction was splendid.
Yeah, if you saw the end the of the the demo you would know there was a lot of characters that weren’t in the full release. Whether that means more is gonna be added later or they just cut an obscene amount is to be seen.
Edit: ok I just rewatched the ending, there is definitely gonna be more content. It says “tome 1” and I don’t think it would say that if they didn’t plan on making more. Still, if they wanted to add more it should’ve been released in early access
"Drink your fucking Martini"
where can I find this game?
@@anime_idiot2717 steam i think
It’s on Netflix too for some reason
As a former theater kid I giggled when Waiting For Godot showed up. Such an odd piece of work.
Haven't seen it, but this game's version reminds me of my roommate telling me about the first play ever made. It was just two dudes talking on a stage for 3 hours.
@@connordarvall8482 Sounds like waiting for Godot, was there also a conspicuous tree?
@@connordarvall8482 Two possibilities
1. They're describing very early ancient Greek plays
2. They're describing Waiting For Godot and you got Godot'ed
@@jonathand.t.5051 My roommate mentioned that it came from ancient Greece.
Same, love the reference.
I was expecting an “I’m my own grandpa” achievement after the lineage puzzles appeared.
The achievements at the end were really interesting. I’d love to see them add more.
Wish granted ish
Tyler, you're such a good vibe man. Watching you work your way through these games is so enjoyable, and you've really stepped it up over the years in terms of your editing as well. Keep up the good work brotha, I hope you know how much we all appreciate what you do.
He doesnt edit his own videos
@@DarkMahge I think they just mean production value in general
But he still pays and chooses an editor, does he not?
I saw two characters and a dead tree and was like "Hey it's Godot!"
I'm happy an editor knew.
Yo it's the ace attorney character
A custom level maker for this game would be awesome and probably really easy to implement. Just let the player choose the scenes, characters, and number of scene slots available, then have them choose one event as the "goal", either auto-generate a title or have the player enter one, and voila instant custom level. It would still probably need a few more characters and scenes to have a thriving community, but a simple modding API to add custom characters and scenes would make it easier on the devs' creativity.
Was just about the comment the same. A steam workshop integration could also go places
I doubt it'll be easy considering how many new interactions will have to be defined and drawn (for example, EVERY character would need to have a beauty ranking if the mirror scene is available in the editor, and every character needs to have a texture for every situation, etc), but yeah I really hope they add something like this in a future update
I actually kinda like that you think something like that would be easy to implement (when it most likely wouldn't). It means the game fooled you with the "naturality" of its rules. Good job, game
i dunno, seems pretty complex to me. lots of sprites to make...
though, there could probably be some cool things.
Yes like smm smm2 for 2.0 with book 2
These types of achievements are exactly why I love achievement hunting. Figuring out these weird and obscure achievements is an absolute blast and the martini achievement was absolutely hilarious.
5:45 HUUUGE shout-out to the editor. I can't imagine the headaches
Shame it was so short, could've probably gone farther with more scenes. Hope it gets a sequel or DLC, definitely a lot more room for growth
6:05 "He's old enough to be allowed to be angry."
*greachy*
I honostly love this game. The storytelling is hilarious. It's amazing
It would be awesome to see this game get an update where people can make their own puzzles with more scenes and characters, sort of like how BTD6 challenges work.
The editor work is unbelievable, it is not some crazy edit, but always helpful, so even when you are not thinking fast about the puzzle he helps
The last achievement was hilarious
9:03 the best bit in this whole video
Yeah shes got the- wait
Yeah
2:55 this was, oddly enough, the only part of the game I was really stuck on, because I cannot for the life of me figure out a solution where hatey WASN'T just protecting his daughter. I can only assume this is actually the only solution and the latter part was just hidden so it wouldn't be as obvious, but if any of you have an idea please tell me
3:26 this puzzle is a reference to the absurdist play "Waiting for Godot", in which 2 men wait for a person who was never going to show up. I had a good chuckle about it when I got to this puzzle.
Can Hatey get jealous and commit murder to date Peachy before the father reveal?
@@TooFewSecrets Exactly this. If Hatey waits to tell Peachy of their relation until just before she kills him, the scene is recontextualized accordingly.
Yes! I was hoping he'd go for 100%, those achievements were me favorite part
15:35 So that explains why the butler doesn't like the duke.
Shout outs for the editor for recognising Waiting for Godot. I love that piece.
I played on Switch, so no achievement. But on the last panel story I found you can make the Knight fall in love with the King, refusing the maid. Or heartbroken because the King is straight (has ♀️ icon).
Also first time I saw the cage icon if the Queen catches the maid out of her jail, from the bushes.
Fun fact: you can tell a character can do horrible stuff if they have an evil look in their icon instead of a regular look, example: out of edgar, lenora and isobel, if edgar/lenora is heartbroken they will only drink the poison every time, only poisoning the wine when their past lover's ghost had told them they had been poisoned by someone (well at least edgar does, lenora could just be too naive to do that) Meanwhile if isobel is heartbroken she will use the poison and intend it to kill the lover of the one who rejected her. Isobel's icon is her grinning creepily while edgar/lenora's is just them frowning. Its the little things that give hints
He said “So he gets a gun” so seriously I think he would actually do this 😂
I felt some elements were underused as a result of the game's short length too. Like the vampire and the cauldron scene, which are both only used for one puzzle.
There sure were a lot of deaths this episode
I would love seeing them make some DLC for this game or something like that.
9:02 “ yeah, she’s got the balls” * realizes what he said* “ wait”
they really should have a level editor since the game is so short...
I absolutely want more of this game, and really hope for DLC/future updates.
3:07 IT’S JUST A FREE LEVEL!
I like how the buttler is like grinning like its a death threat :3
Not even a second in and we pulling an alabama
Tyler, you need to look into the wandering village, it's brilliant. It's also a very cozy village Sim on top of a giant rock beast
In Ace Attorney, there’s a character by the name of Godot, and through that I learned about waiting for Godot, and I understood the reference immediately
I really wish there was a DLC to let people make their own stories, upload them to the Steam workshop, and have other people try to solve them!
At the beginning, he spoke like some music would be like.
Day 903 of telling Tyler that he never finished his minecraft series and that he should finish it.
Arresting dragons? Hmmmmm
Day 863 of agreeing
Every single video that you upload is looking so quality and every one of em has work into it. When I see you changing your facecam position depending on contents we need to see is a prove of that(reverse tower defence game). Thank you so much for this content, much much love from Turkey.
I think a sequel may be possible as the label seen in the credits scene says that it is just storyteller tome 1 witch imply's the existence of a storyteller tome 2.
4:50
"hm? what do i do with this?
"hm? what do i do with this?"
"hm... what *should* i do with this?"
missed opportunity.
0:09 Nice Star Wars ref!
I bought Storyteller after watching you play the Demo and the first two vids after its full launch. Was a bit disappointed with the length, cuz yeah, it only got interesting with the 8 panel stories. Maybe it'll be updated- At least with a Level Editor, please, I beg of you, let there be a Level Editor.
I hope this game gets new chapters. This is so much fun
Hey Tyler! Just thought I'd let you know (though you might already know this if you've been keeping an eye on it) that Storyteller has gotten a new update, with some new elements and a new character!
Can't wait to see you puzzle your way through it!
Edgar: "Hmm, what do i do with this?"
Lenora: "hmm, what do i do with this?"
Isobel: "hmm indeed! 😂"
2:50 That was sad 😢
Free or not, *_this game deserves a DLC_*
10:58 now he knows how literally every author feels 😂
I wa really hoping this game would be longer. I get why it isn't but I do hope they make extra content for it.
They reworked some of the achievements. Now you have to get Laura sad before she’ll drink herself to sleep.
9:02 "she's got the balls"
"wait"
Definitely should get updates, it feels way too short/easy
Good game though
now i feel stupid for having to use a guide on the last 8 levels + the achievements
"she got the balls to push her off" "...." "Wait"
I'm proud to say that I got the "Waiting for Godot" reference since I did a short excerpt for the play in my high school drama class. 😅
“Maybe the Queen will kidnap the maid, uhm. That’s not the maid- this is the maid 😄”
-Tyler 2023
"She's got the balls"
3 seconds later "Wait..."
It's cool you noticed the achievements, but now i can't suggest enough things for another video, oh well.
2 Extra "puzzles" for anyone who reads
(Finale)
"The Queen and the maid have an affair"
(Tiny Murders Uncle)
"Disturbing Interest"
Have 2 characters reject a relationship, find out they're related, then accept it.
15:18 And the Duke wants a martini!
so he gets a gun
I agree Tyler. 7/10 is a fair assessment
Loved the series!
You have Baba and Kiki on your endscreen, but where is "Me". They are missing a friend!
Been loving every single video the past couple years and just gotta say keep it up myan I enjoy the content. Very proud of you
what a twist! 9:39
openning with Oedipus is a bold move
Definitely agree that the achievements should have been in the game proper, maybe as "unlockable" objectives at the end. I did think the game did a little less with its tools than I'd have hoped for, but liked it overall and gave it a positive review on Steam.
0:01 got me 😂
"She's got the balls..
Wait."
DUDE more than 10 yrs on this channel and only 500k? NO! You deserve moreee!
6:11 missed opportunity for the merged name to be “peeny”
If i may say, i miss the vampire survivors videos :)
But i really like this game too
I’m getting some Oedipus Rex vibes from the first puzzle
*Preventing* War Crimes With Tyler
TF2: wait for New Heavy update Steam: waits for update to release. Players: playing Roblox just only waiting for heavy update
Damn I can't believe this game was so short
i feel like with the simplicity of the game itself there should be user levels somewhere
9:03 moment lmao
I was surprised to see a Waiting for Godot reference. 👍
*finally* someone shows the butler's motivation for murder
I really want some more of this.
5:35 Hamlet in a nutshell.
9:02 "she's got the balls!...wai-"
I love how lenora just *Dies* when she drinks too much wine
She's sleeping. The achievement even says so.
@@a.jaionakalilpercy1190 r/wooosh
@@temsaccepted6740 Well excuse me, but your joke was not obvious.
‘Yeah, she has the balls.’
‘Wait-‘
My favorite series!
I loved this I hope for more.
"she's got the balls"
HOL UP
"wait"
I love these videos man, keep it up!
I wish there was more content in this game
the funny part is that he say yeah she got them ball,wait
Very fun game to watch, this was wonderful
I absolutely hate waiting for Gadot. I'm also somehow surprised that it isn't a reference that you know.
“Truly is a sucker for love” so is Tyler gonna play it?
Tyler setting unreasonable standards for desktop cleanliness
Imagine not stopping a dragon
2:52 IT SOUNDS LIKE A SHAKESPEARE PLAY 😭
Him:yeah she has the balls
Him 2 seconds later
Him:wait-
Me:SHE DONT HAVE BALLS DUDE
This series is going great! Keep it up :)
It's over
This is the end sadly
@@jameswalsh1634 Yeah I commented bf watching lmao
It’s harder for hatey to not be protecting his daughter and get murdered by her
But I figured it out
