"Foretales: Card Game Decides Apocalypse Fate"

The developers behind the quirky titles Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, and Feed the Pup are taking a new direction with their upcoming release, Foretales. This narrative-focused, card-based strategy RPG is set to hit iOS and Android soon, promising a unique blend of storytelling and strategic gameplay.

In Foretales, you take on the role of Volepain, a thief who has been haunted by a vision of the apocalypse. Your journey begins with this ominous foresight, and the path you choose—whether towards or away from this vision—is entirely in your hands. The game masterfully intertwines deck-building mechanics with narrative choices, where each card you play influences the story's direction.

You'll navigate through the game using diplomacy, stealth, and combat, with each decision creating ripples across multiple branching storylines. This marks a significant shift from Plug in Digital's typical absurdist humor, embracing instead a more serious and atmospheric tone. Your deck of cards becomes your lifeline in the battle against the looming end of the world.

Foretales isn't solely about battles and upgrades. The game emphasizes resource management, dialogue, and exploration, ensuring that every choice you make has meaningful consequences. The characters are fully voiced, the art style is a vibrant hand-painted design, and the soundtrack, crafted by Christophe Héral (known for Rayman Legends), perfectly encapsulates the game's blend of whimsy and melancholy.

While you eagerly await Foretales, you can dive into some of the best card battler games to play on iOS right now!

Unlike many mobile RPGs, Foretales avoids grinding and randomness to artificially extend playtime. It offers a premium experience free from ads and microtransactions, and it's fully playable offline. The game's structure encourages multiple playthroughs, allowing you to explore different outcomes, choices, and strategies.
