About Whimsical Quest

Whimsical Quest is a retro action arcade adventure with roguelite elements. Traverse the whimsical world with a character that is destined to do hard work for apparently no reason. Unlock different characters along the way and upgrade your characters to be able to overcome the adventure that lies ahead.

Prepare to fight against randomly spawning enemies in different terrains. Collect many different items to form your ultimate character that might die, just in case he doesn't.
  • Jump into the game and immediately start your journey to defeat the enemies that lie in wait.
  • Enrich your encampment to make them satisfied, in return you can bolster your powers.
  • Try not to die until you can make an end to the mastermind behind spawning these beasts.
  • In perfect retro fashion, you will not get your hand held through the entirety of your adventure.
  • Over 50 items with different rarity to collect and utilize on your character each run.
  • 5 different characters to unlock and play, including the Peasant, the Scholar, Spirit Blazer, Johntlet and Flockman.
  • Hack computers with directional inputs that are fun fun fun.
  • Fight through 6 different terrains with various subset maps within.
  • Find critters to fight for you along your journey. They stay by your inside until you have met your own demise.
  • A retro inspired soundtrack that has more than enough funky bleeps and bloops.
  • New game + mode after completion.
  • No manual.

Игра 'Whimsical Quest' - это очаровательное и расслабляющее приключение, которое, как глоток свежего воздуха, после тяжелых ААА проектов. Незамысловатая, но увлекательная история, полная юмора и добрых персонажей, не оставит равнодушным. Особенно понравился визуальный стиль - яркие цвета, милые дизайны персонажей и детализированные локации создают уютную и располагающую атмосферу. Геймплей довольно прост, но разнообразен: здесь и исследование мира, и решение несложных головоломок, и даже элементы крафтинга. Нет ощущения обязаловки, можно просто бродить по миру, общаясь с его обитателями и выполняя необязательные задания. Не ждите от игры откровений или революционных механик. Это, скорее, лекарство от игровой усталости, возможность отдохнуть и просто получить удовольствие от процесса. Единственное, что немного огорчило - небольшая продолжительность, хотелось бы больше контента. В целом, 'Whimsical Quest' - отличная игра для тех, кто ищет что-то легкое, доброе и поднимающее настроение. Рекомендую!

"Whimsical Quest" is an unabashed, lazy ripoff of Vampire Survivors (Copyright Poncle, 2021). Many lazy "amateur" developers don't pay attention to their obligations under copyright law, and often steal the ideas of actual, real game developers without credit, such as the "developer" here has done. Putting aside the unethical intellectual, creative and moral bankruptcy of stealing someone else's game concept, this is also breaking that unwritten law of stealing other people's game ideas... you should at least try to do better than the game you're ripping off. "Whimsical Quest" is considerably worse than Vampire Survivors. While everything in this game is basically a much worse version of Vampire Survivors, it is differentiated by there being a set goal to reach with a little bland sci-fi fan-fiction plot, but this is pointless when the technical delivery is some of the worst on Steam. Nobody on the platform ever said "I really liked Vampire Survivors, but I wish I could be playing a version that's much, much worse." This features really godawful pixelcrap "art" instead of real graphics. It's hard to say if this was because the developer didn't have the skill to do the job of…

A hectic, retro styled rogue-lite game that plays like a bullet hell at times. Controls a a bit weird, but i definitely had fun playing it. Will keep you entertained for at least a couple hours.

So, I'll be blunt with this one. I've tried making a video off this and I'll admit, this is one of those games where taste may TRULY vary here, I get that it's a roguelike but to me, it's rather difficult to put into words what I like in this game. Aside from the jokes of the references the classes made. The controls feel awfully slippery, The starting class is FAR too scrawny to work as, let alone advance with. Do I feel terrible that the footage got thrown away? ..No, I don't cause really if I'm not making any progress whatsoever in my reviews then just watching me not making progress leave viewers why I spent 30 minutes constantly dying in a roguelike?

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
