This like a Medieval Fantasy Ghibli reimagining of "Blame!", which is amusing given the darkness of "Blame!"

I love the "opening of the door" analogy, this type of rpg is amazing to me. Telling a story that isn't predictive or restricted is just too fun.

Definitely gives me some Ghibli vibes. Also really reminds me of Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, about a (mostly) lone person in an entire world that's a ruined House.

Yes! That was my first thought too, great novel. Really good RPG product too, picked it up while browsing Ennie nominations and have thoroughly enjoyed reading through

I absolutely adore the setting of this game and had to pick up a copy of the book when I first heard about it back in April. I really love the idea of battling the larger rooks like fighting the Colossi from Shadow of the Colossus (PS2) or the tutorial boss in NieR: Automata (Switch, XBOne, PS4, PC). There's also a co-op mode for it if playing it with a friend sounds fun. :) I hadn't known about the Patreon expansions. Thank you for covering this!

Seems worthy of the awards and nominations to me! Great review, and thanks for the advice in the thumbnail, I'll make sure to get my castle on starting today!

I just got my physical coppy of this game three days ago and I am loving it. Sadlly I am not in much of a possision to pay for the patreon to get more content vut that is an oh well. I agree that seeing a larger book with more room types would be amazing as well, the setting is just far to fun to not explore more.

Love that you're reviewing this! Nich Angell the creator has put so much time and effort into this and his passion shows. Its a beautiful setting and super accessible.

The illustration on “The Cities of Colostle” chapter (around 8:29) must be an homage to FFXII’s Muthru Bazaar in Rabanastre. Good taste. And yeah this gives me Piranesi plus Gormenghast vibes rather than Ghibli

Gibli certainly comes to mind, but I first though of Ico and Shadow of the Colossus ngl

There's also an expansion book called the Roomlands coming out soon. I'm not sure of the date it'll be released but the kickstarter was earlier this year.

Someone should make this into an JRPG, I would be all over it. Just from this video I'm in love with the world of Colostle

Spoilers is where I get out, but great video. It really helps!

I love this I could run solo numenera adventures with this

It reminds me of a chapter from Tad Williams book series Otherland.

Cheers for great review. I bought the pdf today and printed it out. Looking forward to starting my first ever solo rpg with Colostle tomorrow. Well my first day every rpg ever if I'm honest. But but have a few other solo flight rpgs you've review on order but there taking long than I would like to arrive. As there hard to find in UK
