Indie developer Momiji Studios has announced the release date of its upcoming lighthearted RPG Video Game Fables. Video Games Fables is an adventure set in an abandoned RPG world where no player has stepped foot in decades. It features challenging, fast-paced, and fun turn-based combat with various mechanics in the mix.
At its core, it is an RPG however the gameplay has multiple twists that keep things interesting. Depending on certain actions, you will be rewarded in the game. For example, if you perform a move before the timer runs out, you get a bonus and if you get a Critical Hit on your enemies, you can store it as a resource that you can use on an attack in a later turn.
The solo developer Matt Sharp details that the game takes its inspiration from titles such as Paper Mario, Earthbound and Undertale. It also has illusions to older RPGs such as Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy however it maintains its own identity and humor by offering plenty of mechanics which are unique to it.
