The Book of Unwritten Tales 2 (2014)
The story of Wilbur, Nate, Ivo and the Critter is continued in the saga’s epic second part. We provide players with classic, puzzle-filled adventure and the established
“The Book of Unwritten Tales” humor.
BoUT2 will likely be the most extensive adventure game of the last ten years and is supposed to set new optical and technical standards. The multiplatform game is currently in development, with a release planned for early 2015.

Concept & Evolution:
"The Book of Unwritten Tales" was my first collaboration with developer KING Art Games and began in early 2009.
I was asked to write the soundtrack for a humorous adventure game in the style of the old Lucas Arts' adventures. Because I always loved the "Monkey Island" games and this was my first oppurtunity to participate on a bigger commercial game I immediately accepted.
After some tests we quickly decided that we wanted a catchy and melodious soundtrack, inspired by all the great adventure movies from the past.
Of the almost 60 minutes of music here is a short montage of my personal score highlights:

The Overture:
Another highlight was the orchestra recording for a small part of the game. Under the direction of conductor Bernd Ruf,
the wonderful 65-strong “Brandenburgische Staatsorchester Frankfurt/Oder” recorded the overture, which interweaves
the most important themes of the game. It was a memorable moment for me, which made my music alive.
