About the Game

Who remembers Talking Tattletail? It was SO creepy, right??

There’s not much reference online but the original version, Mama Tattletail, was recalled years earlier… and I’m pretty sure I know why.

90's Virtual Pet Horror

Tattletail is a short, story-driven first person horror game about everyone's favorite talking toy from the 90's. You opened your Tattletail before Christmas, and now he won't stay in his box. Can you keep him out of trouble until Christmas day? Or will Mama Tattletail find her baby and hunt you down first?
  • Obey Tattletail's mischevious demands.
  • Feed, Brush, and Recharge Tattletail... or he'll never shut up.
  • Shake your flashlight to charge it... but be careful. Someone might hear.
  • Do not wake up Mama Tattletail
  • DO NOT MAKE LOUD NOISES NEAR MAMA TATTLETAIL

This is our first game as Waygetter Electronics. We'd love to hear your feedback!!
