Folks, yesterday marked exactly 1 year since the release of Fabled Lands! What a ride it was! With over 25 000 units sold and a score of 8.1/10 from 360 reviews, the game made it possible for me to experience the dream of being a full-time indie game developer. It is the reason I made lots of connections with lots of amazing people across the globe, both fans of the books and new fans alike. Thank you for being on this journey with me! Special thanks to the authors Dave Morris and Jamie Thomson who put their trust in Prime Games' capability to deliver FL to the modern audience as well as to preserve its spirit and brutality that won the hearts of the old fans, thus cementing its legacy in the ether of PC games. You can check some of the very first concept arts and drafts the talented Bernar Aganchyan did that defined the look of the game way, way back in 2019:

Here's how that very first screen of combat looks like in the game today:
You can also read the blog post of how I discovered the FL gamebooks to begin with, and took a flight to London to show Dave and Jamie the first game prototype that helped me win them over and sign a contract: https://www.primegames.bg/en/blog/big-announcement I am wrapping up controller support for Steam next week, and I'll start testing with people from the community. Drop a comment if you like playing games with your controller and you'd want to hop on the beta branch to tell me if it works!
Next in line will be the Switch release. The devkit from Nintendo Europe has already arrived, so the only thing left for me to do is work, work, work! :) As always don't forget to wishlist the game to stay up to date with the latest news and updates: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1299620/Fabled_Lands/

The original Fabled Lands gamebooks, written by Dave Morris and Jamie Thomson, and beloved by many, have been transformed into an epic, digital adventure of interactive fiction with a massive game world. Be anyone you want: explorer, merchant, priest, scholar, thief, wizard, or soldier of fortune. Buy ships, goods, and townhouses, join a temple, risk desperate adventures in the wilderness, or embroil yourself in court intrigues and the sudden violence of city backstreets. Undertake missions that will earn you allies and enemies, or remain a free agent and choose your own objectives. With hundreds of quests and locations to explore, the choices are all yours.

EXPLORE THE FABLED LANDS

Open World
Revolution rages in a war-torn kingdom. You can join forces with the king to restore his throne - or look for profit in the pay of the dictator. Use fighting skills or sorcery, bribery or skulduggery to survive the assassins in city backstreets. Descend to the sewers of Yellowport to defeat the vile rat-king. Retrieve the golden net of the gods from the Repulsive Ones deep beneath the sea - and use the rewards of your victories to travel beyond the boundaries of the known in the world of Harkuna. Your journeys will bring you foes and friends, danger and triumph, fortune and fame - and more adventures than you thought.
Loot and Riches
Amass wealth, honours and power that will take you on voyages to uncharted regions. You can sail the high seas to distant ports. Plunder ancient treasures and do battle with the legions of darkness in the hall of the death-god. Penetrate the labyrinth of lies and sinister secrets of the scheming merchants of Golnir.

CHOOSE YOUR PATH

An old-school RPG
A solitaire role playing game in a pick your own adventure style like no other. Explore a giant open-ended world, where you can truly travel, investigate, and meddle with things, when and as you see fit to do so.
Create YOUR Character
Write your own story! You can be a warrior, using weapons and combat skills to strike down all opponents; a mystical mage, skilled in sorcery; a clever rogue, acquiring wealth by theft and trickery; a daring wayfarer, probing and charting the forgotten reaches of the wilderness; a priest, fighting dark monsters with the holy fires of faith; or a troubadour, charming all you meet on your many fabulous exploits.
Tactical Combat
Hideous dangers await travellers in this savage land. Brigands, trolls, golems, flying heads, assassins, vampires, kelpies, demons, abominable cults, the undead, and many more - all of them will vanquish the unsuspecting adventurer.

SURVIVE AGAINST ALL ODDS

Permadeath
Would you like to raise the stakes? Experience Ironman mode, where every decision is irreversible and your character dies once and for all.
Temples
Choose a deity and obtain its blessing. But remember: once an initiate, if you are to renounce a god or a goddess there is a price. Do you want to reconsider?
Ships
Buy your own ship: upgrade it and recruit a crew - their abilities might prove the difference when surviving a storm or vicious buccaneers. Fill your ship with valuable cargo and find where to sell it for profit.
