Once you open this book, you are no longer just a reader. A "reading-style" fantasy adventure in the spirit of The NeverEnding Story — handcrafted over six years by a 30-year veteran from Vanillaware. 100% handmade, from the first page to the last.

Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1/day in the week to Aug 24 → 1.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.
About
As you turn the pages, you'll make choices, face down enemies, and grow. You can charge in with a sword in hand, talk your way out of danger, or simply ignore it and keep walking.
Every choice you make and every roll of the dice changes the way the world responds to you.
Yoshio Nishimura, a 30-year veteran of the games industry from Vanillaware (Odin Sphere, Dragon's Crown, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim), spent six years in a remote Japanese mountain village crafting this game on his own.
Every single one of the 300+ illustrations was drawn by his own hand. No generative AI was used at any stage. This game has a soul that can only be found in something truly handmade.
Elden Ring, Baldur's Gate 3, Dungeon Meshi — Beneath the fantasy worlds we celebrate today lie the gamebooks and tabletop RPGs that first gave them form.
Veritas Tales returns to that moment — to the true weight and texture of swords, sorcery, and rolls of the dice. Savor once again what we first called fantasy, on pages that remember how it all began.
Yoshio Nishimura:
Founder of Digitalis Publishing. A 30-year veteran of the games industry. As Chief of Background Art, he contributed to the original Monster Hunter at Capcom, and to Odin Sphere, Dragon's Crown, and 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim at Vanillaware. After leaving Vanillaware, he settled in a small mountain village in rural Japan. There, he tends his fields and crafts games.

Game is good
挺好玩的,有以前冒险书的感觉,但是体量算不上大,路线也比较固定,没有跑团那种以外解题感,未来有dlc去加入其他角色其他故事就好了
My boy Ragnvaldr got himself an upgrade.

好玩,不过结尾的时候好像有两张CG我没打出来,可惜。
Love this adventure book game! The characters are nice and the art is very nice and fitting, combat is nice too. I need a sequel that is longer with more weapons!
