Lantern of Worlds - Storybook

⠀

Its very basic but it has an nice story, and good voice sound dialouges. I played it trough in one hour. I like it a lot and will give it a try to the other Lantern of Worlds games.

This is a great game! The graphics look outdated and I was sceptical about picking it up. But I'm glad I did. It's got a good story and gameplay. You need to read the conversations and do the quests, as needed. The map has a pointer to help you decide where to go. There isn't much grind which was a welcome change from the usual RPG grinding in most games.

Good but short (about 1-2 hours), adventures story based RPG. Simple and free

Игра Lantern of Worlds - Storybook очаровывает с первых минут! Это красивая головоломка-бродилка с уютной атмосферой и сказочной историей. Управление интуитивное, а уникальный механик рисования светом восхищает. Идеально для расслабления и погружения в волшебный мир. Настоящая жемчужина для любителей жанра!

"Lantern of Worlds - Storybook" is RPG Maker garbage, but it looks like the developer did the almost-right thing and didn't flip any RPG Maker assets or try to make yet another Final Fantasy 1 ripoff about his imaginary anime girlfriend (seriously, most RPG Maker asset flips on Steam are about the developers imaginary anime girlfriend, it's weird). Instead we get an almost authentic looking retro adventure game where you click through a bunch of badly written dialogue and do some other RPG-like minigame kinda activities which thankfully can be clicked through in about an hour, and when one of the best things anyone can say about your product is that it's short, spending $100 on Steam Direct may not be the best course of action. What do you do in the game? The idea is that the Kingdom of Idunia (idunnoia) is menaced by dark forces or whatever so you need to click on a bunch of stuff and read some really cringey writing to make it go away. I appreciate the somewhat more earnest attempt to recreate a retro gaming feel here, but you know those old games this is badly aping still exist, and my advice for people who want that retro nostalgia should go and play the originals. Indeed…
