About The Scorchfarer
The Scorchfarer is an episodic visual novel following two novice Terramagus mages on a journey to heal a post-apocalyptic high fantasy world ravaged by magical flames. With hand-drawn art, an original soundtrack, and an interactive point-and-click system to uncover story secrets, it delivers a 3-4 hour narrative experience rich with mystery and world-building.

Welcome to the scarred kingdom.
The story of The Scorchfarer is set on a post-apocalyptic high fantasy world. A cosmic event known as the 'fire rain' destroyed most life on the surface of the planet. It was soon discovered that the flames were so magically dense that it would take a millenia for them to die on their own. Both of the continents, Uzu and Zuhaar, joined forces to bring back balance to their world. A new breed of magus was born, the Terramagus, tasked with healing the world and to give every living creature hope for the future.
Mikaela and Yukiharu, two novice Terramagi are about to set off into the heart of the continent after finishing their training. Their journey is about to become much more complicated than they could ever imagine as the secrets of their world slowly unravel.
The first episode of The Scorchfarer (The Wanderer and the Anchor) contains the following features:

- 17 unique hand drawn characters
- 45 hand drawn backgrounds (+12 variations)
- 15 original songs
- 3 to 4 hours in length (first episode)
- A point & click system to learn more about the world by searching for clues
- A journal mode to learn more about the characters and places

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
The Scorchfarer is a visual novel praised for its beautiful hand-drawn art, charming characters, and engaging story set in a magical world with whimsical music that creates an immersive experience. Players appreciate the light interactivity and character development, though some achievement hunters express frustration that DLC content now prevents maintaining a perfect completion status where it previously didn't. The game appears well-suited for those who enjoy narrative-driven experiences and atmospheric storytelling.

This game used to be free to get 100% achievements in, not anymore. Would prefer the DLC to be a separate game so achievement hunters like me don't feel obligated to buy to keep the 100% achievements status.2 found this helpful
[h1]Before I played The Scorchfarer, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]1 found this helpful
