Howl

Dark fairy-tale world

Description

Howl is a turn-based tactical folktale set in medieval times. A sinister "howling plague" has ravaged the land, turning all who hear it into feral beasts. You play a deaf heroine plunging into danger in search of a cure.
Plan up to six steps in advance to outmaneuver your opponents: wolfish creatures filled with hunger and rage. Various types of fiends are lurking in the shadows, each of them possessing different abilities and their own levels of vitality. So, you need to consider carefully the strategy that will bring them to their knees.
Not only do you have your wits to rely on while plotting your attack, you also have an array of abilities at your disposal. As you slay more wolves, you acquire skills like Vault, Smoke Bomb, and Piercing Shot. Venture forth on your journey to upgrade your skills and unlock more Action Slots and Undo Round Points. As you plan your moves, you will also shape your own prophecy, composing a dynamic work of scripture as you fight.
Howl's visuals are created through "living ink", a flowing art style that paints the story as you play. Carve your way through a dark, fairy-tale world made up of obscure yet magical places where you fight and write to rid the lands of the plague.

Just finished to demo and loved it

I litterally only just finished the demo and im already in love with it. I also love how they let you teat out the game before you actually buy in and play the full version. Also, It is a pretty low price for such a hogh quality game.

A wonderful challenge

This game is gorgeous, the music is lovely, and the voice acting is on point. The only complaint I have is, like everyone else, that if you are on the leftmost column of the map you can’t shoot arrows because the card is covered by the UI. Well, that and I would like more of the game but I think it may be better at this length.

Could use a few more UI tweaks

Gave them the benefit of the doubt based on the prompt response to a bug report and bought the full game, but no updates since. Unimpressed.

Excellent Game, As others say, some UI issues

Picked up this game sometime last week and have been playing it quite frequently! Very enjoyable artistic style and strategy! Difficult enough for you to spend a little time planning and being creative while not being overly frustrating. The story doesnt especially grab me; I loved the different maps for the chapters, and really liked that you could demo the first few before paying to really get a taste of the game. That being said, as others have mentioned, the UI gets tricky to navigate when cards start covering each other up. I was able to make it through the game anyways, but not without some trial and error. All in all, I definitely think its worth the money and was a very enjoyable game! Im hoping to go back through and collect all the achievements.

Great game, BAD PORT. Not fully playable, wait for fix

Ok the game itself is really fun, however it’s clear that they put little to no effort in porting this from PC. Sometimes, the UI element you need to touch, especially the arrow, is hidden by other UI elements such as the banner along the side. A sliver will be showing and if you try 1000 times you might be able to select the arrow. Otherwise, RIP. Also, the instructions tell you to hover over an element to find out something about it via tooltips. However, there is no hover on an iPad. So i can’t do that. I’ve tried tapping, long pressing, etc, but when a new enemy type appears I have to just guess what it does. Very lazy port. Please test your game prior to release.

Gorgeous on iPad, UI needs a tweak

Love this absolutely beautiful story about hope in the face of overwhelming adversity, art style is so unique and well done 🥰 It’s a tough puzzle game but doesn’t punish you for making mistakes- it encourages you to try again. Working out a new section of a particularly tricky puzzle is so satisfying, I find myself more interested in trying something else than I am bummed I died. All that being said, the card system should be brought forward, over the UI, so it can be used when the level goes further off the screen. I love the captions but I hate that they also sometimes block the cards.

Great Game

The game is great 👍 it has really nice gameplay with predictable enemies which is nice. The eerie story and the medieval art style comes together nicely.

Good - needs some UI improvement

Really fun! I’m enjoying the challenges and the story. So far I’ve noticed one issue where I can’t select my arrow card if my character is on the left edge of the screen. The banner covers it up.

Woke rubbish

You’re forced to play as a disabled female character. Something tells me she has creative pronounce as well. To top it off the female narrator’s broken English, whispering voice makes you want to throw the phone out the window. Pass and uninstalled.

Excelente

El juego está muy muy bien, está bien hecho y tiene una estética preciosa, la forma de jugarlo me parece muy interesante, pero llega el momento en que ya no puedes jugar si no pagas, eso es lo único malo
