The Book of Outcasts

Good game ruined by aggressive VISA/Mastercard censorship. I know it is not a developer's fault.

O terceiro jogo da trilogia, contendo uma parte 2 em produção no atual momento, uma boa historia considerando os demais jogos e uma pegada sombria que acho muito legal, nele vc pode escolher em jogar como uma mulher (minha opção favorita provavelmente por ser uma) ou um homem, pontos fracos do jogo, alguns diálogos muito longos, muitas dungeons e um sistema de combate que atrasa a historia, e poucas cenas eróticas para o gênero, principalmente para o personagem Feminino. Ponto de interesse, o jogo possui um patch para liberas algumas cenas. é muito importante o download para obter a experiencia completa.

поначалу было прикольно вчитываться в повествование, но эти повествования должны чем то перемежаться геймплей этой игры два прихлопа три притопа убог как у всех игр для уных дрочеров, но юные дрочеры обламываются их ждет новый квест разблокировать этот контент и то которого горох наплакал воспользовавшись дискордом разрабов, 4 часа я потратил на это недоразумение лучшеб сразу удалил и запросил возврат, я уже молчу про корявый перевод заунывную музыку и тупые диалоги

Le jeu est gentillet au début, puis on se retrouve vite coincé par un bug si on ne veut pas passer par le chemin forcé artificiellement par les devs. Encore des bouffonnes qui cherchent à imposer un choix de couloir tout en faisant semblant d'avoir des arbres de choix (ellles ont même pas un bosquet). Je déconseille fortement sauf si vous appréciez d'être traité comme un "con", puisque c'est ce que ces gamines proposent...

This is really more of a mixed review. The story is good and the writing is mostly really well done. I do not regret the money spent or my time and will likely play it again. I don't generally like visual novels, so that says something. The images can be lacking, or simply don't match what you are reading (such as the totems being discribed as tigers, but are clearly a person). There are not a lot of text/translation errors, but when you hit one it is jarring. Sometimes things are mentioned, then nothing in that regards ever happens (such as the ape king saying if you ever come back he would mate you, then you return repeatedly, even to his camp, and nothing ever happens). Since they have started on the next game, I doubt anything will be finished in these regards... I hit an image missing error in a part added by a patch and had to reinstall to fix it, so the image wasn't included in the patch.

这代对比上代属于是全面提升了，但是H CG感觉有点少。。

The Book of Outcasts, developed and published by kamti, is an ambitious dark fantasy title that tries to weave together multiple genres—narrative-driven adventure, dungeon crawling, and light settlement management—into a single cohesive experience. It places a heavy emphasis on mood and worldbuilding, presenting a bleak and morally complex setting that immediately signals its intent to deliver something more serious and atmospheric than a typical indie release. While its scope is impressive on paper, the actual experience feels like a mixture of strong ideas and uneven execution. The narrative forms the backbone of the game, following a disgraced figure drawn into a shadowy order tasked with confronting supernatural threats and political conspiracies. The world itself is harsh and unforgiving, filled with fractured factions, lingering magical corruption, and a sense of constant instability. Early portions of the story are particularly effective, drawing players in with mystery and layered exposition that hints at a much larger conflict. Dialogue and environmental storytelling work together to create intrigue, encouraging players to piece together the broader picture. However, as the game progresses, the pacing becomes inconsistent, and certain narrative threads lose focus or resolution, diminishing the impact of what initially feels like a compelling setup. Gameplay attempts to support this narrative ambition through a combination of systems. Exploration and dungeon crawling form the core loop, with players venturing into dangerous areas to gather resources, uncover secrets, and engage in combat. Alongside this is a settlement management element, where players are responsible for maintaining a base of operations. While this dual structure suggests depth, the two systems rarely feel fully integrated. Combat, in particular, lacks variety and responsiveness, often feeling repetitive after extended play. The management side, while conceptually interesting, operates more as a background feature than a fully realized strategic layer, limiting its influence on the overall experience. The world design contributes to both the game’s strengths and its weaknesses. There is a clear attempt to create a large, immersive environment with multiple regions and distinct areas to explore. At times, this scale enhances the atmosphere, reinforcing the sense of isolation and danger. However, traversal can become tedious, as movement between locations is often slow and lacks meaningful interaction. The absence of efficient navigation tools further disrupts the pacing, turning exploration into a chore rather than a rewarding activity. Visually, the game adopts a dark, stylized aesthetic that aligns well with its tone. Certain elements, such as character artwork and key environments, stand out and help establish a strong identity. However, the overall presentation is inconsistent, with noticeable variation in quality across different areas. The interface also presents challenges, with menus and navigation systems that can feel clunky or unintuitive. These technical and usability issues can interrupt immersion, making it harder to stay engaged with the experience. Another defining aspect of The Book of Outcasts is its mature thematic direction. The game explores heavy and often explicit subject matter, integrating it directly into both the narrative and gameplay. This approach gives the world a raw and uncompromising tone, but it also narrows its appeal and can feel uneven in how it connects to the broader story. For some players, this intensity adds depth; for others, it may come across as excessive or distracting. Over time, the game’s limitations become more apparent. Repetition in combat, lack of mechanical evolution, and technical roughness contribute to a sense that the experience does not fully develop its ideas. While there are moments where the game’s ambition shines through—particularly in its storytelling and atmosphere—these are often offset by issues in pacing and design consistency. It feels like a project with a strong vision that has not been fully refined. Despite these shortcomings, there is something compelling about The Book of Outcasts. Its world is distinctive, its tone is consistent, and its attempt to combine multiple gameplay styles is admirable. For players willing to engage with its systems and overlook its rough edges, it offers moments of genuine intrigue and immersion. It may not deliver a polished or tightly integrated experience, but it does provide a glimpse of what it could have been with further development. In the end, The Book of Outcasts is a game defined by its ambition more than its execution. It offers a dark and atmospheric journey supported by an interesting narrative foundation, but is held back by uneven mechanics, technical issues, and pacing problems. It stands as an intriguing but flawed entry in the indie space, best suited for players who value worldbuilding and tone over mechanical depth. Rating: 7/10

Game is great and taking the best parts from other series. Dev is also very responsive and involved!

Good game.
