\
Ian: By human standards, he possesses exceptionally strong combat prowess, but unfortunately, his opponents are anything but human. The soul of the entire story, he is not the traditional radiant savior but a "unyielding hero" cruelly toyed with by fate, struggling between despair and hope.\
Flame: Leader of the Divine Wrath Knight Regiment of the Church. She appears strong on the outside but has a soft interior. Born into a noble family, she ran away from home and, through her own efforts, became a church knight. She holds fast to her beliefs even when facing far stronger opponents. Ultimately, she lets go of her obsessions and finds peace with herself.\
Pupeti: A slave girl with a complicated and mysterious background, harboring immense hatred and resentment. In this cruel world, she seeks to rely on the strong to fulfill her long-cherished wish but unwittingly becomes a pawn in a calculated scheme.\
Guy: The King of Scourgers, a legendary top-tier powerhouse who, as the mastermind behind the scenes, orchestrates the entire incident. He stops at nothing to achieve his goals, pushing endurance and calculation to the extreme. Having survived for centuries just to break free from being a pawn, he may seem villainous, but everything he does is solely to seize control of his own destiny.Stage Crew Member：

Was interested in this game, visual novel paired with slay the spire esque gameplay. The art screams AI, despite it not being shown anywhere. The gameplay is unbalanced, theres no strategy, just purely RNG. Would refund if i could/1015 found this helpful
H O R R I B L E ! Chapter 1. Boss have 175 HP, I got 65. He hits for 30 DMG, I hit for 5-10. Tutorial is useless unless you learnt this type of games somewhere else before. Heh EDIT: Sometimes I reach the boss with 10-30 HP left. EDIT #2: After beating the 1st boss out of luck, I am facing the 2nd. He got 300 HP and does up to 100 damage per hit. I do still do 5-10 damage per attack. Shortly after, he gets 350. I am still doing the same damage and heal for a 5% or 10 points. TL;DR: RNG of the worst type. Too many "no win" situations forcing the player to repeat the whole chapter. Damage sponges. Ridiculous damage. Not enough defence and HP recovery for the player. Garbo.3 found this helpful
oh man, oh man... Forsaker is 7/10 at the most, but i really like it's story.2 found this helpful
- The art looks like AI but I can't prove it. - The story was interesting in some moments but mostly the time boring and generic - You have perspective of three characters which is cool except the characters are: the most bland every man anime protagonist, nearly naked chick who wants be a knight or something but family said no, and last the one character where they at least try something but not enough to make him interesting ( an dthey gave him the most bad name ever "Guy") - the card battle system exist just to add padding to boring and short story and to break ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ peacing of story because why not - SPOILER if you care about ending, but it ends in ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ cliffhanger like I cared about anyone in this game - the game is unplayable if your system is set to Polish or Russian, the game freezes on boss if you don't have Chinese locals set on system. Which is from what I heard a known issue with Chinese games - the only good thing is the music is sometimes good1 found this helpful
Even though the art seems like it's AI, the story is decent of a dark fantasy novel if you are in that sort of thing. I love the option to just watching the story unfolds or do a little bit of game play in between the story. Good game overall.
Forsaker is a fun visual novel/ deck builder style of game with a fun and hype story. Just based on the title alone I had no clue what the story was even going to be about, but upon reading I was very pleasantly surprised by the story. Its gritty and no one really gets a happy ending thanks to some deus ex main character rug pulls which I appreciate especially in a war torn world kind of setting. The whole story was also translated very well with minimal errors from the original language into English. While I did enjoy the story, I do wish that it expanded more on the side characters in the story rather than the three main characters because they did a great job at introducing them all. The ending itself can be seen as well done, where it can be a proper ending while also leaving room for a sequel as well. The deck builder portion of the game is not the best, but there is nothing wrong with it. It came with all the usual packages of multiple builds but one specific build will just outclass everything by far. I managed to find a build where even the toughest of boss battles never went past turn 1 while with a normal build that same fight would last til turn 30 plus. Over all Fors…
