Story-driven action-adventure game Wavetale takes place in the flooded archipelago of Strandvilles. The heartwarming story of loss and reconciliation follows protagonist Sigrid, as she acquires the power to skate across the ocean waves and bound through the air.

Developed by Zoink Games of Lost in Random, based in Gothenburg, Sweden, Wavetale is published by Thunderful for consoles and Steam. Sigrid befriends fishermen, surfs the waters of a submerged city, and fights gigantic sea monsters.


Music for the game is composed by Joel Billie, and can be purchased through Bandcamp and Steam. Vocal track "Iri’s Lullaby" is performed by McKenzie Atwood, with lyrics by Alexandra Dahlberg. Music previews are streaming on YouTube, courtesy of Black Screen Records.

Kristoffer Alehed performs flugelhorn on the soundtrack, with Zofie Kasparová and Adrian Åsling Sellius on flute, Lúcia Silva on Marimba, and Agnes Högberg playing violin and viola. The full 15-track album is streaming on YouTube Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music Unlimited.

Wavetale is currently available for Nintendo Switch, Xbox One and Series X|S, PS4 and PlayStation 5, along with Windows through Steam and the Epic Games Store.
