If you've been on the hunt for a fresh spin on classic fairytales, you might feel like options are scarce. Enter Fantasy Voyager, a new ARPG that not only promises to deliver the twisted fairytales you crave but also mixes in elements of tower defense and cooperative play, making it a compelling choice for gamers.
Developed by Fantasy Tree, Fantasy Voyager thrusts you into the heart of the Dream Kingdom's conflict, where the Princess is locked in a battle against the Lord of Nightmares. To emerge victorious, you'll need to collect Spirit Cards, each representing a twisted version of well-known fairytale characters, to aid you in your quest.
What does Fantasy Voyager offer? Expect a blend of traditional ARPG action with Warcraft-inspired tower defense scenarios. As you progress, you'll deepen your Bond with these Spirit Cards, unlocking powerful new effects and abilities that enhance your journey through this reimagined Once Upon a Time experience.
Beyond the Red Hood
While Fantasy Voyager might not revolutionize gameplay mechanics, its approach to twisted fairytales is what sets it apart. Although not a completely unique concept (even Disney has explored this territory recently), it remains a captivating theme that holds promise across various genres.
Is Fantasy Voyager worth your time? That's for you to decide, but if intriguing character designs and the promise of engaging gameplay appeal to you, this could be the new release you've been waiting for.
