Endless RPG - Untold Tales

I spent more hours in this game than I expected, what I like about this game is how simple everything is, which also can be a problem for someone who lacks imagination like me, core gameplay is great, but adding more features and things to do would be a massive improvement for the game.

So much fun

Where has this game been hiding? This is a prime example of simple presentation hiding a massive level of creativity, I would say significantly more than the store page indicates. Several things weren't really clear to me regarding gameplay until I bought and began playing it, like the turn based combat being grid based rather than a static ATB final fantasy style system as some of the pictures would indicate. The level of interaction and jobs in towns aren't really mentioned other than talking about the dynamicism of the generated world, but to me it seemed from the store page like that world existed almost independently of the party's adventures, like it was just kind of a backdrop as you went dungeon diving. To clarify in case anyone had the questions I did after reading the store page, combat is movement and positioning based, the world exists parallel to your adventure with some opportunities to influence it in small ways, which is a really remarkable approach and makes your characters feel like citizens of the world you're in rather than the main characters. It creates a lot of really fascinating emergent stories without them explicitly having to be told. I do think there's a lot of opportunity to grow here and I hope the developer comes back to it. Having variations of events or more dialogue options rather than the same "it was the apprentice with the box" outcome every time would be relatively little writing to keep those events much more fresh and adaptable over the course of a playthrough. While there's enough gameplay here to last a few dozen hours per playthrough you'll unfortunately see most of the events in the world within the first 2 or 3 hours and they'll just repeat after that. Having variations or even random events and storylines based on your characters' personality hooks like in wyldermyth would just add some engagement with the world and make the settlements more distinct. All that said, this is really good. It relies a lot on the core gameplay loop and dynamic world but in a way that really sucks in the player and makes for enjoyable exploration and combat, and I really like the way settlement interactions are handled here. I sincerely hope to see more content from this developer.

Got it on sale, but this game is definitely worth $13. Solid RPG sandbox that lets you build a party of 4 right at the start. There are enough skill trees and builds to keep you playing for the next level up.

I was skeptical at first glance, but played it for three hours and didn't look up once. An amazing labor of love and a fantastic game. Give it a try.

Got this yesterday and ended up playing for 6 hours. Makes it worth the price in my book. Hope this game picks up steam It deserves it and it'd be great to see a lot of workshop stuff.

Right. I have some 38 hours on this. And I've done quite a lot. But there are always something to come back to. More builds to try. And characters to meet and chat with. Stories that are told. Really though, it's a wonderful game for the price. I can see myself spending quite a lot of time on it over time. Coming back every now and then to do a run. Great Dev as well.

Fun game, don't quite know what im doing yet, i started playing it at 1 AM and had better stop or ill be up all night.

So I picked this up on a whim, it looked interesting and was looking for a time-waster to play while taking a break from other games. And then I looked up at the clock and I'd been playing for 8 hours straight. It didn't feel like it. I didn't notice the time go by. Not even Skyrim or Fallout caused me to lose track of time this badly. Not since the earlier Civilization games (oh those memories of playing Civ 2 after you get home from school and then realizing hours later you've got only an hour before you have to go to school and boy are your parents pissed).
