Get Out And Read, Thwart Monsters In Fantasy RPG Book Quest

Hey, isn’t that Zelda? Nope. It’s Book Quest – the latest retro adventure RPG from publisher Eastasiasoft. Out this week on PC and consoles.

After his family’s magic book is stolen, our nameless hero goes on a quest, a book one, to retrieve what’s rightly his, dodging, meleeing and solving puzzles. Oh, and his dead grandfather tells him to do it.

Key features include:

• Explore a medieval fantasy world in top-down pixel art style!
• Run, dodge and attack in real-time combat.
• Equip new weapons and gear to strengthen your character!
• Solve brainteasing puzzles and play side-scrolling mini games.
• Enjoy charming cutscenes and dialogue that drive the narrative.
• Discover the truth behind your family’s stolen magic book!

Here’s that Zelda-like trailer:

Book Quest is out tomorrow (the 10th of August 2022) for the PC, PS4, PS5, Switch and the Xboxeses – priced at $6.99/€6.99.
