The creators of the quirky titles *Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion*, *Turnip Boy Robs a Bank*, and *Feed the Pup* are taking a bold new direction with their upcoming game, *Foretales*. This narrative-focused card-based strategy RPG is set to launch soon on iOS and Android platforms, promising a deeply engaging experience for players.
In *Foretales*, you embody Volepain, a thief haunted by a vision of the apocalypse. Your journey begins with this ominous premonition, but the path you take to either confront or avert this fate is entirely in your hands. The game masterfully blends deck-building strategy with narrative choices, where each card you play directly influences the story's progression.
Your toolkit includes diplomacy, stealth, and combat, and your decisions will ripple through multiple branching storylines. This marks a departure from Plug in Digital's typically absurdist tone, offering a more serious and atmospheric experience, where a deck of cards becomes your lifeline against the end of the world.
Beyond battles and upgrades, *Foretales* emphasizes resource management, dialogue, and exploration, ensuring that every choice carries weight. The game boasts fully voiced characters, a striking hand-painted art style, and a captivating score by Christophe Héral, known for his work on *Rayman Legends*, which beautifully captures the game's blend of whimsy and melancholy.
