"Foretales: Card Game Decides Apocalypse Fate"

The developers behind the whimsical adventures of Turnip Boy Commits Tax Evasion, Turnip Boy Robs a Bank, and Feed the Pup are taking a bold new direction with their upcoming release, Foretales. This narrative-focused, card-based strategy RPG is set to launch soon on iOS and Android devices.

In Foretales, you embody Volepain, a thief haunted by a vision of the apocalypse. Your journey begins with this ominous foresight, and the path you take to either prevent or fulfill this prophecy is shaped entirely by your choices. The game seamlessly blends deck-building strategy with impactful narrative decisions, where each card you play influences the unfolding story.

Your arsenal includes diplomacy, stealth, and combat, each decision branching the storyline in multiple directions. Foretales marks a departure from Plug in Digital's typically absurdist style, offering instead a deeper, more atmospheric experience, with a deck of cards as your sole weapon against the looming end of the world.

Beyond the battles and card upgrades, Foretales emphasizes resource management, dialogue, and exploration, ensuring that every choice carries significant consequences. The game features fully voiced characters, a hand-painted art style that brings the world to life, and an evocative score by Christophe Héral (known for his work on Rayman Legends), which perfectly captures the game's blend of whimsy and melancholy.
