Vendir: Plague of Lies

Add backbone controller support

Downloaded expecting a quick, simple game I could play while travelling, got an experience that is on par, if not better, than many rpgs out there in both content and theming. Love the dark fantasy/ more gruesome elements, I’ve got a good few hours in gameplay now and still feel that I have only scratched the surface of the story, and quests have a nice diversity to them. Amazing game, do download!

I kinda laughed at the review surrounding the cursing- it’s a reasonable issue when you’re a parent- but still funny. Anyway, about the actual game. Vendir is the first game i’ve played from these creators; and it was just- good. Like. Really good. The combat is fluid and expansive, it’s pretty open to many OP exploitations if you’re smart enough to know how to actually use the system. Fights rarely drag on TOO long, but personally i’ve had fights last a bit, yet still fun. Dialogue is written extremely well, and there’s a certain bit early in the game where you can talk down someone from suicide- the bit is not only funny but also somehow wholesome for a game which seems to take more distinct turns into dark humour and occasionally meta humour. And even though often meta humour is never a good sign- it’s used pretty well here too- with some parts even explained with canon elements. The devs will know what I mean, considering how random they are. My only gripe are some of the quests being a little boring. And it’s somehow not the fetch quests most of the time. Personally? It’s the endless fight quests. They’re few in number- and only 1 is relevant to the story, being a monastery quest. And that’s about all. Vendir is a great get- as long as you’re not getting it for a child! It’s definitely open to it’s language and dark parts- so avoid it if they’re not ready.

This really is an amazing game. No heavy monetisation, no intrusive interface, really fun to play and explore. I haven’t been able to leave this game alone since I downloaded it. The only thing that will spoil this for me is when I finally run out of content to complete ;( The devs have outdone themselves with this one. Let’s hope this is the beginning of a new era in mobile gaming, where quality triumphs over blatant cash-grabs…

Your games deserve high amounts of praise. The dedication to the story and the combat is just worthy of respect. I love this game and Vampires fall Origins. Please don’t stop producing rpg games. I mean it.

Genuinely one of the best mobile games i have played. A huge improvement from vampire origins (which is also one of the best games ive played)

This game is very good while still being challenging it is a nice mix of the two. I loved vampires Origen and now love this.

From the makers of Vampire falls. Very much the Same feel and as enjoyable. Not quite as polished though but i am sure that will change as it is developed. Worth your time though.

Vampires Fall for me (and I’ve only been playing a couple of weeks) is one of the best games for me on IOS. Other than Warzone Mobile of course. The rebirth system along with an extra map was a winner for me and I think now up to Horror status can’t remember and level 68 I think. I love my character. Still yet to play online. However, I read a review of Vendir before downloading and saddened to learn there is no rebirth or extra map which is a shame. Maybe the devs are still working on it who knows. One thing that is annoying me is that (and I’ve only been playing a day) is the fact I can’t go of the path for more than 5 seconds without having to fight three or more rats or boars. Makes me not want to wonder of the beaten track. Boring me honestly. And the even BIGGER issue here is that the turn based combat is in 3d. It looks awful. I played Worms Armageddon years back and Team17 tried 3d and ended up reverting back to 2d because they obviously new this was the better way and what the game needed. Devs, Vampires Fall turn based combat is in 2d and it is epic. For your next game which I will definitely try, 2d fights would be better even if characters are modelled in 3d, landscape turn based combat is the way to go. Thank you for these games though, you are gonna get better and become bigger if you keep up the good work. Champions of Avan is great fun and addictive to by the way. I just wish I felt the same about Vendir. However, what I can say is that Vendir’s graphics are much better than the latter. Great art work.

I blitzed this (pretty big) game in a weekend because it is so well written. Great class and skill system, lots of clever tactics and builds, dark humour and fun!
