Foretales: Card Game Where You Decide Apocalypse's Fate

The developers behind Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, and Feed the Pup are taking an exciting new direction with their upcoming release, Foretales. This narrative-focused, card-based strategy RPG is set to launch soon on iOS and Android, promising an engaging blend of deck-building and storytelling.

In Foretales, you play as Volepain, a thief who has glimpsed a vision of the apocalypse. This vision sets the stage for your journey, where your choices and the cards you play shape the narrative's progression. The game combines deck-building strategy with meaningful narrative choices, allowing you to navigate the world through diplomacy, stealth, or combat. Each decision you make has far-reaching consequences, impacting multiple branching storylines.

Foretales marks a shift from Plug in Digital's typical absurdist humor to a more serious and atmospheric experience. Your deck of cards serves as your lifeline in a world teetering on the brink of destruction. Beyond battles and upgrades, the game emphasizes resource management, dialogue, and exploration, ensuring that every action you take has a significant impact.

The game boasts fully voiced characters, a vivid hand-painted art style, and an evocative score composed by Christophe Héral, known for his work on Rayman Legends. The soundtrack strikes a balance between whimsy and melancholy, enhancing the game's immersive atmosphere.

Unlike many mobile RPGs, Foretales offers a premium experience free from grinding, randomness, ads, and microtransactions. It's designed to be played offline, and its structure encourages multiple playthroughs. Each replay allows you to experiment with different choices and strategies, leading to varied outcomes and a richer understanding of the game's world.
