Evaluation

Teslagrad launched on December 13, 2013 as a complete, self-contained puzzle-platformer. Post-launch activity consisted of a handful of bug fix and feature patches in 2014, and the release of a soundtrack DLC on June 15, 2017 — the only paid add-on ever listed for the game. No further DLC has been released or announced for the original Teslagrad. In April 2023, Rain Games released Teslagrad Remastered as a separate product on Steam, alongside the sequel Teslagrad 2. The store page for the original Teslagrad now directs players toward these newer releases, describing them as continuations of the saga rather than additions to the original game itself. In May 2025, Rain Games announced a physical "Teslagrad Power Pack" edition (for PS5 and Nintendo Switch) that bundles Teslagrad Remastered and Teslagrad 2 — again a separate product, not new content for the original Steam release. All DLC for the original Teslagrad (the soundtrack) has been released. No further content has been announced for this version of the game. The developer's post-2017 efforts have been directed entirely at sequels and related titles. The game launched as a finished product and its content has been complete since the soundtrack release on June 15, 2017.
Evidence
The only DLC ever released for Teslagrad is the official soundtrack, which shipped on June 15, 2017. No further DLC has been listed or announced for the original game.

About this game

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.
