Eldrum: Untold - RPG Fantasy

not knowing they were needed for the potion, i ate some flowers to regain health. now i can’t make the antidote

The world is dark and brooding, with art, prose, and music to match. Your choices matter in ways that will keep you guessing (and begging for more save slots). It’s a little short, but difficult enough that I can’t imagine anyone getting to the end without dying several times. Thank goodness there’s an Eldrum sequel already, Red Tide (even better), and a third in development! These are the most immersive, challenging, and high quality text-based games I’ve found for mobile devices, and I’ve tried tons of them. I’d love to see this team play with genre and style, as bleak and gory isn’t strictly my jam. I would play any text-based game they created — cozy, comedic, or high fantasy; sci-fi; mystery — whatever they feel passionate about I’m sure would be a slam dunk.

They tried to casualize the gameplay by just making it, tap the screen to win. He would’ve been a much better game if it was turn based.

just beat the game. This was a fun several hours. The game is completely accessible with voiceover.

Bought the game, thinking it was worth a shot. Ended up being the best thing I’ve ever did. Definitely need more games like this!!!

This game has an engaging story and a pretty fun game play style. My only complaint is the saving mechanic is not the best. You can do something for 20 minutes, then get spawned back at an old checkpoint. I had a habit of manually saving before any major decision, but got me stuck in a death loop at one point.

I actually really like the game AND hopefully there will be more stories added because I played it all and want more

Making it procedurally generated would be awesome but a big task sure. As it is now, very enjoyable.

This is a game that everyone will enjoy! It's brought my heart so much happiness then I can play video game as complex and intricate as this, while being blind and using accessible features on my iPhone. Truly amazing and I hope that more games like this are developed and I want to continue supporting games like this for myself, others, the future, people like me, and people who are into these sorts of games! Thank you to the developers for creating such a special game that has inspired me so much!

It’s exactly that. The story, the visuals, the sound - it all comes together to create something truly beautiful. I love that our character is a woman, I’m tired of the default in RPG is usually a male character as well as other boring tropes. This character and the supporting characters were more original and realistic to the setting. The story is violent, it follows people in a dangerous setting. Honest and descriptive death scenes and other tragic themes. This is another aspect I appreciate as death and killing in video games has become far too g rated. It and other terrible things should be represented realistically. My only complaint is, I have done multiple play throughs and there are various secret items you can get if you save scum. Though it’s hard to say if you got them all in the end. So it would be nice to have a way to know if you collected them all. The other thing is I would love if at the end there was a little something more, like we could go join the war. I grew a powerful character and I’d love to take her out more, it’s a shame to have it end but I suppose it has to be over at some point.
