Indie developer, Tale of Tales has announced The Graveyard is now available for the iPhone/ iPod Touch. In the Graveyard, you play an elderly woman who visits a cemetery. After walking do a bench in front of the church, you sit while music plays. Once the music concludes, you walk back to the cemetery gate. In the full version of the game, there is a chance that you die while sitting on the bench. In the Lite version, players don’t die.

“The Graveyard offers a player the opportunity to imagine themselves in a certain situation,” explain creators Auriea Harvey and Michael Samyn. “It’s not a game in the sense that there is a way to win or lose or a puzzle to solve, or even a story to uncover. But the interaction does immerse you in a virtual world filled with narrative, an equally powerful feature of the medium of videogames. The iPhone version of The Graveyard is the same as the PC version. Only a few elements have been removed or simplified to allow it to run on the iPhone hardware. But the fact that you hold the game in your hand and touch it with your finger, adds to the sensation of fragility and preciousness.”

The full version of The Graveyard is available through the Apple Apps Store for $1.99 or at http://Tale-of-Tales.com/TheGraveyard.

The Lite version is also available for free.
