Escape Tales: Children of Wyrmwoods
Play as Gilbert, a drifter in a grim, walled town threatened by a twisted, plant-animal wilderness beyond its walls. The game unfolds as a story-driven escape-room experience in cards, with exploration, inventory cards, and puzzles to solve without time pressure. Choices and a lightweight character-progression system steer a branching narrative full of plot twists and difficult moral decisions. Players examine scenes, collect and combine useful items, and solve riddles that shape the protagonist’s fate across a non-linear, replayable campaign.
