Awesome

What a cool and interesting game

Unforgiving

Don’t buy this if you get at all frustrated with games.

After replaying my current region more than a dozen times, literally memorizing all the cards and paths, I’m still stymied and can’t progress. Maybe I should just start over and make different storyline choices, but can’t bring myself to throw away all that time getting to this last level. Certain play mechanics, like not being able to pre-arrange battle order, and not being able to replay a region within a level are just poor.

Brutal

Tough game. Deleted after 45 mins of trying.

Add cloud archive

The game is good, but there is no cloud archiving, and switching devices cannot be seamlessly connected. Please add cloud archiving in the future.

Pas de son

Je n’ai pas de son dans le jeu depuis un iPad, est il possible de venir en aide ? J’adore le jeu mais impossibles d’avoir du son’ j’ai déjà essayé de le re installer et rien ne change.

Super

Histoire et gameplay vraiment cool. Hâte de voir les impacts des différents choix

Fantastic game with one major flaw

If you fail halfway through a mission, even if you go to a different region during the mission, you’re reset back to the beginning of the mission. For missions that take 20-30 minutes per region, I refuse to redo almost an hour of mission progress. Please fix the save progress and I would give it 5 stars. At a minimum, it should save my progress to the start of each region, NOT the start of the entire mission.

Boring game.

Don’t bother with this one. Lacks pace, and action.

So fun! The art is amazing

I love the game a lot- i think theres a few issues with the card mechanics(like, the card physics themselves- the card you’re hovering over not pulling to the front, sometimes the cards will be unselectable, etc-) but it doesn’t pull me out of the game! I actually could see using this same engine for more stories and expanding the world of volepain and his buddies- the studio’s creativity makes me think it could be a super successful series

Repetitive gameplay

Unlike the rogue like deck builders on the market this game is completely story driven. The stories interesting, and the consequences of your choices and actions is a lot of fun to play with.

Level progression itself though is just cycling through the same cards until you reach your destination. Combat is optional, but usually you just end up throwing all your resources just to end it without an actual fight. All in all the gameplay itself is lacking and you quickly feel the fatigue of the cyclic nature of the cards.

Überraschend Umfangreich

Ein wirklich cleveres narratives Kartenspiel, mit hohem Wiederspielwert und viel zu entdecken. Tolle Grafik, toller Sound.

Good game

Fun game with great visuals and sounds. I especially enjoy the creativity behind some of the hidden interactions. I recommend for the price. Do wish it had a feature to move dialogue a bit quicker.

Response from developer

Thanks a lot for your feedback! We're really glad you enjoyed the game.Thanks for the recommendation and for playing! :)

No controller support

Why ? A good game Excelent game but without controller support…. Why?

Response from developer

Hello and thanks for your feedback! We focused on creating two tailored touch control schemes to best suit mobile play and provide the most comfortable experience on phones and tablets. We understand some players prefer controllers, but our goal was to make the game feel as natural as possible on touchscreens. Thanks again for playing! :)

Not bad

I like that it’s a story across many chapters (missions/regions)

Anyways there’s a few typos which isn’t a big deal but y’all should fix that also the sound settings keep resetting which is annoying and the narrator voice needs to be 500% louder cuz even on max it’s quite af 😒

Response from developer

Glad to hear you’re enjoying the story! Thanks for pointing out the typos and sound settings issue, we’ll take a closer look. As for the narrator volume, one workaround is to lower the other volume sliders in the settings to make the voice stand out more. In any case, feedback like this really helps us fine-tune the experience. Thanks for playing! 😊

I can’t play this game

Warning: this game is SLOW. Likely because this isn’t native to mobile, but the UI tells you nothing until you click on a card. Combat is slow. Flipping used cards is slow. Checking how each card interacts with the location cards is slow. It would be quicker to play this game on tabletop. I strongly recommend against this game.

Response from developer

Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts! We’re sorry to hear the pacing didn’t work for you. Foretales was originally designed as a narrative strategy experience, and while we’ve worked to adapt it for mobile, we understand it may not be the right fit for every playstyle. Your feedback on UI clarity and responsiveness is noted, we’re always looking for ways to improve. Thank you for giving the game a try!

Quality game at a reasonable price:

Other developers should take note. That fact that a modern dev is willing to take time to make a complete game with beautiful art, story, UI and gameplay is refreshing. East to tell that this team enjoys creating quality things.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the kind words! It really means a lot to the whole team. We loved creating Foretales, and it’s incredibly rewarding to see players appreciate the care we put into it. Thanks for playing! 😊

An enjoyable game

You hear that volepain? Celebrities! “That’s adorable.” I’ve been really enjoying this game.

Response from developer

Ah, the sweet sound of fame! Volepain’s ego just grew three sizes, and he says thank you while adjusting his imaginary crown! We’re thrilled you’re enjoying the game. May the cards continue to deal you fortune and fun!
