About the Game





Epistory is an atmospheric adventure typing game that tells the story of a writer lacking inspiration who asks her muse to help write her latest book.

In Epistory you play the muse, a fictional character in a world where everything is untold. Your adventure begins on a blank page, but the world will soon become larger and livelier as you gather inspiration, solve its mysteries and defeat its enemies. From movement to opening chests and fighting in epic battles, every element in the game is controlled exclusively with the keyboard.

As you progress and explore the fantasy origami world, the story literally unfolds in the writer’s mind and the mysteries of the magic power of the words are revealed.

Features


  • Explore a beautiful paper craft world: play as the muse riding a giant three tailed fox, lost in a fantasy 3D world
  • More than just typing: solve mysterious puzzles, unlock magic powers and defeat enemies in adrenaline pumping epic combats
  • A writer’s block? Collect fragments and inspirations points to unfold the story as you explore the origami world in the writer’s head. But there is more to the story than meets the eye…
  • All in keyboard: from movements, combats to even menus, control everything with a keyboard
  • Adaptive difficulty: if your hands fly around the keyboard or if you are a slow typist, the game features a dynamic difficulty system that evolves to fit each players’ skill set
  • Competitive Arena Mode: challenge other players for the top spot in the arena leaderboards
  • Play in your own language: game texts are localized in English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Polish with voice overs in English. The game supports several keyboard layouts (QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY, BEPO, Dvorak, Workman and Colemak)

Its a really well put together game. and it does for sure help with your touch typing, I enjoyed it for the most part and will be replaying it. some not so good things: the quick travel is there but I think it should have been tied to the unlock blocks instead of the dungeons, the color coding for the various elements is okay but if you have colorblindness of any type your screwed and the I really wish it was longer or had a DLC/Story we could play through.

I like the game for it's novelty game mechanic of typing words in order to unleash spells either to do combat and unlock doorways, bridges, or treasure chests. Each level has it's own atmosphere, evoked by the vocabulary of words that are presented to you as challenges to type. I am not a "touch typist" and I found the game quite playable and the challenges were also fathomable after only a small amount of investigation. You collect points for succeeding in the challenges, and the points can upgrade your skills, so that you stay ahead of the game. While it only takes one touch for you to die (ie, the protagonist has no Hit Points), it is easy to restart the game from the last checkpoint and the game still remembers your progress. This means that even seemingly very difficult challenges can be offset by doing as much damage as you can, dying, reloading the game, and continuing from where you left off. What marred the game for me was that it was a tad boring in places and the ...
