Join The Book of Travels and become a part of a unique social roleplaying experience that doesn’t hold your hand. Inspired by genre classics, this is a serene adventure that sets you adrift in a fairytale world... but it’s also an invitation to roleplay without the restraints of linear missions and plotlines. Feel at liberty to travel the free wilds and vivid cities of the Braided Shore peninsula. Wander deep into the layers of this hand-drawn world, stumble upon its hidden places or unravel one of its many mysteries. There is no overarching goal, no real beginning or end, but for mortal characters the stakes can be high.

The game runs as it should, but for $30, there’s so little content that it really isn’t worth the price. The developers are trying too hard to come across as original and offer something unique. That’s true, but unfortunately, you’ll start to get bored after a while. Book of Travels, with its beautiful but empty world, could be a truly great game, but...
In summary, I really wanted to like Book of Travels – it has a lovely atmosphere, a well-thought-out mythology and a genuinely original style. You certainly get the feel that the developers have a sincere love for the world they have created. Unfortunately, it all felt a little empty. My character did plenty of walking without stumbling across anything...
The Book of Travels’ early access offers a great foundation for something that can really be a new blueprint for video games developers to design a multi-player experience without any of the expected toxicity or the frustrating grind.
