Tarock Interactive GmbH is a game development startup founded in 2023 by industry veterans Felix Dreyfus and Jens Kortboyer. Based in Berlin, the company creates immersive games for a core gamer audience, focusing on historical accuracy with a fresh perspective. Consulting with archaeologists and historians, Tarock blends historical depictions with myths and regional folklore to enhance gameplay.
The debut title, Lost Legions, is an open-world survival game where players become Roman legionaries who survived the battle of Teutoburg Forest and are stranded behind enemy lines. As they struggle to survive, they uncover the forest's mysteries, realizing their mission goes beyond survival.
The tagline, Replay History, promises players to experience history through the eyes of everyday people, striving to navigate historical timelines. Aiming to become a leading name in historical gaming, Tarock plans to self-publish and eventually branch out into indie publishing.
