Not sure who or what this is, but I like it.
Late last year we had a newcomer to the digital interactive fiction scene, Liber Primus Games. Their first effort was Narborion Saga which was different from other gamebooks in that it was loaded with IAP. You needed gold to buy bookmarks and other stuff within the app which immediately put Narborion Saga behind the 8-ball. Why bother with an IAP scheme to get decent interactive fiction when there’s so much other great stuff on the App Store?
Apparently Liber Primus heard the complaints, for when the second chapter of the book arrived the IAP had disappeared. Sure, there was a one-time IAP to unlock the full game, but that’s a far cry from buying an in-game currency. The sequel also introduced some other innovations, like a grid-based combat system and the ability to import physical miniatures into the game. Today, Liber Primus updated the first chapter to be more in line with the second. The first book no longer has any in-game currency, just the one-time $6 IAP to unlock the full game. They also brought the grid combat and import options into the first game as well.
The game is free to download for iOS Universal and Android, so it’s probably worth a look now that the paywall has been dismantled. Trailer after the break.
