13 itemsAbout the Game
"Video Game Fables" is a funny, lighthearted RPG adventure set in an abandoned game world that hasn't had a player in decades.
The world's script gets completely ruined by someone calling herself "The Forsaken Princess." It's up to Aru (the world's princess), Nate (an NPC aspiring to be a hero), and Tator (the villain's son) to get things back to normal...or maybe change everything forever.
- Lighthearted humor throughout the dialog, characters, and world.
- Fun narrative and story that doesn't rely on parody and has its own identity.
- Challenging, fast-paced, turn-based battles that require strategy and quick thinking.
- Twists on turn-based combat such as the CRIT system which lets you store a CRIT and use on a later turn.
- Insane boss fights that break the battle system.
- Unique XP and leveling system which lets you allocate resources to setup your party strategically.
- Skill crafting, light class system that changes play styles slightly depending on equipped weapon, weapon upgrades, mining, fishing, simple gardening, and many more fun features.
