FAQ

Wavetale — running on water across the sunken world of Strandville

Wavetale is a cozy story-driven action-adventure from Thunderful Development, released on December 12, 2022. You play as Sigrid, a girl living with her grandmother in a lighthouse in the middle of a flooded archipelago. One day she meets a mysterious shadow from the deep and gains an incredible power: the ability to run straight across the surface of the water, glide over the waves and launch herself into the air on a grappling line. Buying the key from Brawl Games gets you a Steam activation code and the full game in your library to keep forever.

What the story is about

The world of Wavetale is sinking. The Strandville archipelago is slowly slipping beneath the waves while a sinister Darkness rises from the sea, threatening the last of the islanders. Sigrid sets out on a journey to understand what happened to her world and to save the people she loves. It's a warm, sometimes bittersweet tale of loss, growing up and reconciliation — never grim or violent, but full of genuine emotion. The game is short (around 5–7 hours for the main story), and that's its strength: it tells a complete story without padding it out.

How it plays

The heart of Wavetale is movement. Sigrid doesn't swim — she races across the surface of the water, carving through the waves like a surfer without a board. Using her shadow companion she latches onto hooks and rooftops, flings herself into the air and soars above the sea. The controls are light and intuitive, and simply travelling across the open sea is a joy in itself — this is a game where movement alone feels great. Along the way you collect cosmetics for Sigrid's outfits, scrapbook pages and help the islanders, with the occasional gentle clash against the Darkness.

  • Running and surfing on water — the unique traversal mechanic the whole game is built around.
  • The open sea of Strandville — explore islands, lighthouses and submerged structures.
  • A heartfelt story about Sigrid, her grandmother and a mysterious shadow.
  • Cosmetics and collectibles — dress up Sigrid and gather pages of memories.
  • Friendly difficulty — a game about atmosphere and the journey, not hardcore challenge.

What's included

This is the complete Wavetale — the entire game, from the opening frame to the final credits. Wavetale has no separate paid DLC, season pass or microtransactions: a single key gives you Sigrid's whole story with no extra charges. There are no "standard" versus "deluxe" editions — there's just the game itself, and you get all of it.

Region and activation

This is a regional Steam key for the Russia (RU) region. For the code to activate, your Steam account region must be set to Russia — otherwise Steam will refuse the key. This is important to check before buying: a regional key is not the same as a global one. The activation itself takes a minute: open Steam → "Games" menu → "Activate a Product on Steam" → enter the key → the game appears in your library. After that Wavetale is tied to your account forever — it's a one-time purchase, not a rental or subscription.

Language and platform

Wavetale supports Russian interface and subtitles, so Sigrid's story can be experienced fully in Russian. The game is light on hardware and perfect for a cozy evening — including on Steam Deck thanks to full controller support. It's a calm, meditative adventure that lands especially well after intense competitive games.

Similar games from Thunderful

If you enjoy Thunderful's signature style — atmospheric indie adventures with heart — take a look at The Gunk (an adventure about cleansing a polluted planet from the same team), the colourful puzzle-platformer Togges and the emotional card-driven adventure Lost in Random. They all share Wavetale's mood: small, personal, and focused on atmosphere and story.

Is it worth getting

Wavetale is a short but complete adventure for anyone who values atmosphere, a beautiful world and satisfying movement over grind and difficulty. If you want to quietly live through a touching story over an evening or two and literally run across the sea — this key is for you. Place your order, grab the Steam code and set off for Strandville.
