The complete rendition of the classic role-playing game has arrived on Steam under the title Fabled Lands, following roughly a year spent in early access where it earned widespread praise from players. At the time of writing, its user rating sits at 85 percent, reflecting solid appreciation from the community for the game’s depth, atmosphere, and faithful mechanics.
The game draws its inspiration from the acclaimed book series of the same name, created by Dave Morris and Jamie Thomson, and translates that rich world into an interactive experience with care and ambition.
In Fabled Lands, players are invited to become whoever they choose to be—an explorer roaming ancient roads, a shrewd trader peddling wares, a priest guiding a faltering community, a scientist seeking knowledge, a cunning thief, a sorcerer wielding arcane powers, or a seasoned mercenary. The game rewards risk and curiosity with the chance to acquire ships, luxury goods, and even mansions. Adventurers undertake perilous quests across a vast, living world, and players may also find themselves entangled in courtly plots and political maneuvers that shape the fate of kingdoms.
The world of Fabled Lands is expansive and war-torn, offering a sandbox filled with choices. Players must decide their allegiance: back the king striving to reclaim the throne or align with a ruthless dictator intent on securing power by any means necessary.
Combat in this title is turn-based, challenging players to outthink and outmaneuver a range of enemies. Alongside encounters with assassins and bandits, explorers will face creatures such as vampires, goblins, trolls, demons, undead, and seasoned wizards whose spells shake the battlefield.
For those craving a higher level of challenge, there is a survival mode that features perma-death, ensuring every decision carries weight and consequences in a world where danger lurks at every corner.
Fabled Lands is available for purchase at 332 rubles, currently offered with a 20 percent discount through June 2. The discount makes entry more accessible for new players who want to experience the game’s expansive storyline and strategic combat without a large upfront investment.
All screenshots from Fabled Lands can be viewed within the game’s store page, showcasing the detailed environments, diverse character classes, and the dynamic weather systems that influence exploration and encounters.
The first trailer for the Andor series—intended as a prequel to the Star Wars film Rogue One—provides a sense of the kind of epic journey and intricate political intrigue that gamers can imagine translating into the world of Fabled Lands, where destiny is shaped by bold choices and ruthless ambition.
Notes: The game is positioned as a thoughtful homage to its literary roots, inviting both fans of the book series and new players to immerse themselves in a sprawling fantasy setting where personal liberty and strategic planning determine success.
