Foretales: A Card Game of Apocalypse Choices

The developers behind Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, and Feed the Pup are taking a new direction with their upcoming game, Foretales. This narrative-focused, card-based strategy RPG is set to launch soon on iOS and Android.

In Foretales, you assume the role of Volepain, a thief who has been haunted by visions of the apocalypse. Your journey begins with this ominous foresight, and the path you choose—whether towards or away from the apocalypse—rests in your hands. The game masterfully blends deck-building mechanics with narrative-driven choices, where each card you play directly influences the story's progression.

Your toolkit includes diplomacy, stealth, and combat, and your decisions create ripples across multiple branching storylines. This marks a shift from Plug in Digital's typical absurdist humor to a more serious, atmospheric experience, with a deck of cards serving as your lifeline against impending doom.

Foretales goes beyond mere battles and upgrades, emphasizing resource management, dialogue, and exploration. Every choice you make has tangible consequences. The game boasts fully voiced characters, a hand-painted art style that bursts with vivid colors, and a score by Christophe Héral (known for Rayman Legends) that perfectly balances whimsy and melancholy.

For fans eagerly awaiting Foretales, there's no need to endure grinding or randomness that artificially extends playtime. This premium experience offers no ads or microtransactions and can be enjoyed offline. The game's structure encourages multiple playthroughs, not only to explore different narrative outcomes but also to experiment with various strategic approaches and combinations.
