Description


The free demo version of Fabled Lands is available on GOG.COM. You can download it here



The original Fabled Lands gamebooks, written by Dave Morris and Jamie Thomson, and beloved by many, have been transformed into an epic, digital adventure of interactive fiction with a massive game world. Be anyone you want: explorer, merchant, priest, scholar, thief, wizard, or soldier of fortune. Buy ships, goods, and townhouses, join a temple, risk desperate adventures in the wilderness, or embroil yourself in court intrigues and the sudden violence of city backstreets. Undertake missions that will earn you allies and enemies, or remain a free agent and choose your own objectives. With hundreds of quests and locations to explore, the choices are all yours.

EXPLORE THE FABLED LANDS

  • Open World
    Revolution rages in a war-torn kingdom. You can join forces with the king to restore his throne - or look for profit in the pay of the dictator. Use fighting skills or sorcery, bribery or skulduggery to survive the assassins in city backstreets. Descend to the sewers of Yellowport to defeat the vile rat-king. Retrieve the golden net of the gods from the Repulsive Ones deep beneath the sea - and use the rewards of your victories to travel beyond the boundaries of the known in the world of Harkuna. Your journeys will bring you foes and friends, danger and triumph, fortune and fame - and more adventures than you thought.
  • Loot and Riches
    Amass wealth, honours and power that will take you on voyages to uncharted regions. You can sail the high seas to distant ports. Plunder ancient treasures and do battle with the legions of darkness in the hall of the death-god. Penetrate the labyrinth of lies and sinister secrets of the scheming merchants of Golnir.

CHOOSE YOUR PATH

  • An old-school RPG
    A solitaire role playing game in a pick your own adventure style like no other. Explore a giant open-ended world, where you can truly travel, investigate, and meddle with things, when and as you see fit to do so.
  • Create YOUR Character
    Write your own story! You can be a warrior, using weapons and combat skills to strike down all opponents; a mystical mage, skilled in sorcery; a clever rogue, acquiring wealth by theft and trickery; a daring wayfarer, probing and charting the forgotten reaches of the wilderness; a priest, fighting dark monsters with the holy fires of faith; or a troubadour, charming all you meet on your many fabulous exploits.
  • Tactical Combat
    Hideous dangers await travellers in this savage land. Brigands, trolls, golems, flying heads, assassins, vampires, kelpies, demons, abominable cults, the undead, and many more - all of them will vanquish the unsuspecting adventurer.

SURVIVE AGAINST ALL ODDS

  • Permadeath
    Would you like to raise the stakes? Experience Ironman mode, where every decision is irreversible and your character dies once and for all.
  • Temples
    Choose a deity and obtain its blessing. But remember: once an initiate, if you are to renounce a god or a goddess there is a price. Do you want to reconsider?
  • Ships
    Buy your own ship: upgrade it and recruit a crew - their abilities might prove the difference when surviving a storm or vicious buccaneers. Fill your ship with valuable cargo and find where to sell it for profit.

Badly thought out mechanics

This game is basically a text adventure but with dice rolls. Every location has its own encounters but they never change, even in places where it would make sense. Money is easy come easy go. You could easily, in many encounters, get unlimited money. All depending on how long you feel like sitting there clicking, and then random diceroll in an encounter can decide that you should lose it all. There is even a few places where there is a insta-death from what looks like a harmful encounter. There is so many tedious moments when trying to speed things up. Text appear too slow. No way to easily see which blesses to get where. All this bad mechanics aside, what is the actual gameplay? Basically hope that you have read the correct 'clue' before going to a location. There isn't actually any difficulty in this, just "Ohhh I wish I has a FEATHER at the castle", so you just need to randomly wander around until you can find the feather to go to the castle etc. And hope that you don't roll low on an encounter or you have chance to instantly die. There actually is a 'combat' mechanics, but it so simple and non-interactive I don't really consider it part of the gameplay.

This game is amazing

It has been a while since I found this kind of depth in a survival/exploration RPG. For someone like me that loves playing 7th Continent and FTL this is the game, harsh and sometimes unfair but incredibly fun in itself. There are tons of well-written text, amazing challenges and the full dread of exploring the unknown with nothing but your wits and luck. I died seven times in my first hour, over four different playthroughs, and I loved it. I'm still only 7 hours in, I don't understand what I'm supposed to do to complete the game and I think it's fantastic.

Good RPG.

I was disappointed first that there were no Linux version but turned out that it runs well in Linux under wine. If you like choose-your-own-adventure and Fighting Fantasy gamebooks then you will like this one too. Nice graphics and music, good turn-based gameplay.

It's clever

It's a game version of the books, which is what everyone wanted, and it works really well. It's fun to play, I've been enjoying it so far and still have most of the content to go.

Nostalgic Story with Beautiful Art

I used to play the solo adventures of the Fabled Lands books when I was a teen. The texts are just like in the books, but wrapped in an appealing game setting. The art style is very nice and I'm happy to get back into the Fabled Lands in digital format!
