About

A journey begins... A treacherous tower... Unravel its mysteries!

Discover the secrets kept in the long abandoned Tesla Tower!
Magnetism and other electromagnetic powers will help you explore a non-linear world of beautiful hand-drawn environments, in a steampunk-inspired vision of old Europe. A young boy suddenly finds himself embroiled in a long-forgotten conspiracy, involving a despotic king who rules the nation with an iron fist. Jump into an outstanding adventure told through voiceless storytelling, writing your own part. Armed with ancient Teslamancer technology and your own ingenuity and creativity, your path lies through the decrepit Tesla Tower and beyond.Features
  • Complex puzzles! Put your sense of logic to the test and cleverly manipulate the world around you using electricity and magnetism, the lifeblood of the game. Puzzles will range from “pff, that wasn't so bad” to keyboard-smashing, controller-chewing frustration.
  • Explore! Make your way through rich 2D hand-drawn surroundings as you journey into — and beyond— Tesla Tower, picking up use amazing new items as you go.
  • Visual storytelling! Tired of all those words in your video games? Have no fear, Teslagrad features not a single snippet of text or squeak of dialogue. Everything is purely visual, and the entire story is told through what you see (and sometimes what you don't see).
  • Steampunk powered! Discover a dystopic and mind-blowing rainy-and-brainy setting, presenting a steampunk vision of an old Europe-inspired new world.
  • Old-school boss fights! Use your skills and wits to overcome the 5 incredible final bosses eager to demagnetize you.
  • No disruptions! That means no loading screens, no GUI, no cutscenes. Just the game and you.
  • Mesmerizing soundtrack! Awesome mix of classical orchestra, with a touch of Russian inspiration and a myriad of metal bits and electrical stuff.

Teslagrad is available for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux.

"It's beautiful minimalist storytelling, and it fits really well with the gameplay proper, which is delightful in more ways than one." Jared Rosen, Indiestatik.

Teslagrad reviews and comments

Review of Teslagrad Teslagrad I had once bought myself full of Disinterest for €0.99. I still had some Money left over from the Autumn Sale. Even that one Euro would be better invested in a Scavenger'S mess. Teslagrad belongs to the Metroidvaniagenre and just like Apotheon, this Game has just as failed to be a worthy Representative of this Genre. There are several Reasons for this. Like Apotheon, Teslagrad cannot create a reasonable Metroidvaniakarte Card. Although individual Rooms are interconnected, walkways are sometimes extremely long, which in itself would not be a Problem if they were not too time-consuming. And by time intensive, I mean that even while strolling around the Map, you will die quite often. Because the Level of difficulty in Teslagrad is unnecessarily quite high, but not because the Game is hard from The ground up, no, but rather because it had been made harder in an idiotic way, which would not have been necessary at all. For Example, you die after a Hit and you have to start over. In Addition, the Control is so imprecise and spongy that this also makes it difficult to Play. Even simply Jumping never felt comfortable. Yes, even the Physics of Objects was never comprehensible! Causes that have made the Game unnecessarily heavier and unsatisfactory. Although some Puzzle Passages were quite nice, the partly painted, partly comiclooky art style was nice to look at and the Music sounded really wonderful. Only playfully, Teslagrad Didn't Enjoy me at all! It's a real shame! Let's Just Get to the Pro-contra list for the fast guys among us: Pro: + painted Background Backshots and the comiclooky art style I really liked + The Soundtrack just sounded wonderful + I also liked how the Boy's Outfit changed over the course of the Adventures, due to new Garments that resemble Skills, changed! Contra:-There are always short Still images when changing Rooms. Is Probably because it is always stored at the Beginning of a Room. Annozed more. Especially when Exploring-For a Metroidvaniatitel, the Map has been designed quite idiotically. You can't even look around sensibly, or zoom in! -The Game is unnecessarily quite heavy-You die immediately in the Event of a single error and have to start again at the start of the Room-the Physics of Objects is not at all comprehensible prontra: +-Control Buttons are added in the Option menu, at least still on the Xbox 360 Controller, not properly depicted Teslagrad Just doesn't pay off. There are much better Alternatives for Metroidvaniafans, Such as Owlboy, Hollow Knight, Axiom Verge, Or Iconoclasts to name a few.

Grandsimo game. If I have bothered to write this review is that the game is worth it. Pretty graphics, good controls, cool story and easy and entertaining gameplay. It is a game of adventures and puzzles (not very complicated at first) very well done. I recommend it to everyone. Congratulations Rain Games for this game!

Some games should not be adapted to iphone: unless you have a controller, some passages will be complicated at best, at worst unbearable. It is exasperating and very bad ...

It seems that this game is optimized for a gamepad. Indeed some passages are almost impossible to achieve in touch as the number of action at the same time is important. Otherwise, the universe is great!

In principle, the graphics seem to be very nice, but I gave up very quickly because the app is unfortunately not adapted to the new iPad 11. The control is thus relatively far away from the edge due to the black bars and rather frustrating. :-( Hello, Teslagrad, where you can deactivate the floating pad, giving you more options for the controls. :) Thank you for your feedback, and we hope you enjoy the game!

The game is superb, the grip excellent, Level design well studied. However some parts are almost irralable as the keys are difficult to navigate. One sometimes has the feeling to understand the action put in place without being able to put it into practice. Too bad on this point Hello, We have released a new update of Teslagrad, where you can deactivate the floating pad, thus giving you more options for the controls. :) Thank you for your feedback, and we hope you enjoy the game!
