Well here is something interesting, a new text-based adventure game is coming to PC in 2020. This new game is called Roadwarden and is being developed by Moral Anxiety Studio. Roadwarden won’t be 100% text-based but rather combine the genre with visual novel elements to deliver an in-depth storytelling experience. The game also features a nice pixel art style to really drive the aesthetics home! Player’s will assume the role of a wandering adventurer tasked with anything from delivering messages and goods to taking on enemies. The world of Roadwarden is a magical one so expect some interesting encounters on your journeys!

Some of Roadwarden’s key features include:

• Explore & Change the World: Discover the secrets and face the challenges of a hostile fantasy world — inevitably unveiling its uniquely sinister history

• Grow With the Challenge: Create your own background story, personal abilities, beliefs, and personality to shape your very own future as a Roadwarden

• Classical RPG Attitude: Prepare yourself for an epic journey, either as a warrior, mage or scholar, and define your character‘s traits; like friendly, playful or intimidating, during interactions with various NPCs

• Mysteries Unfold: Use your savvy and wiles when investigating and drawing your conclusions to understand the true nature of this world. Immerse yourself in detailed dialogues and sidequests with dozens of NPCs to gain their trust and support.

Roadwarden seems like a very interesting take on the genres it encompasses and I can’t wait to learn more as the game furthers in development. Roadwarden is not expected to launch until late 2020.
