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

Bought this for my 7 years old girl to practise her typing skills. Unfortunately this game is way too difficult for her and I have to take over to play. Nevertheless this is a great game. The story is cool and puzzles

This game is severely undercut by its lack of story telling skill. It's a visually stunning game, wildly creative, smooth, and very enjoyable to play. If I had to be specific though on the recommend I'd rate it a 3/5

I've given this one a lot of thought and I honestly can't recommend it nor will I finish it. The art style is gorgeous. There's no question about how amazing it looks; its unique and stylized world is great. It has good

great presentation, the world literally unfolds around you as you move around and spell stuff, but it's paired with an unimpressive story, some really hard but mostly optional tower defense-like hive sections and bugs

Pretty fun! I found the story very underwhelming, but the typing mechanics are pretty fun, switching between elements adds some complexity. It was a fun low-thought collectathon, there are always immediate objectives to
