Telltale Games

Bob_Woodward · 04/23/2012, 07:34 am

Hello,

I own Tales of Monkey Island. Now my son is old enough to play adventure games, but he can't understand (or read) english. Is there a chance of getting the german version without having to pay for it?

If you are willing to pay 5,50€ for it, you can find it with the current issue of the Computer Bild Spiele - Gold-Edition magazine. Is that close enough to "not paying"?

If you can't find it in stores anymore, you can mail-order the issue HERE (for an additional 0,50€ for shipping).

First I bought ToMI for iPhone where it is already in german. Than I thought it will be cool to play it on larger screen on my Mac and so I bought ToMI a second time in store of telltalegames. After download the game I was a bit shocked since the Mac version is only in english. After using google I saw there is also an PC(Windows) version of ToMI in german, but not directly soled by telltalegames but by "Daedalic Entertainment". This confuses me because I bought in past the "back to future" game here in the shop and this was in german and english. Why not ToMI?

So can you please offer here in shop a German Version of ToMI for Mac (OSX) ?

I don't like the idear to buy the game a third time just to play it on a bigger screen in german. And most of all I will not use an Windows-PC to play it.

I think that depends on what the German publisher gets out of the deal.

Daedalic got the publishing rights for the German version, Daedalic made the complete localization. So it's completely normal that you'll only get the German voices with a version Daedalic actually makes money with.

BTTF was released way after ToMI and was Telltale's first try to offer a localization themselves (and they failed miserably, sadly). JP did a lot better in that regard.
