The game has nice respawning fauna, dungeons and actually quite unique plethora of quests. I am quite surprised. Several DLCs, extensions are there and you can also buy the game on your mobile device and play it there (google play). Its quite unpopular, but very high quality.

A fun RPG worth checking out imo. It has a lot to offer and is charming in many ways, although it certainly doesn't hold your hand. I've always found the early game to be fairly difficult and even a little tedious, but once you have a proper build and equipment it's enjoyable. I really want the card mini-game to be its own separate app; I've spent quite a while just playing that because it's so entertaining!

Return to fantasy childhood In an era of flashy graphics and complex mechanics, The Quest stands as a nostalgic tribute to the golden age of role-playing adventures. Originally released for mobiles and later remastered for PC, this hand-drawn world embraces old-school design principles, featuring grid movements and turn-based combat that hark back to classics like Daggerfall, Ultima, and Might and Magic. Studio Redshift has crafted a game that feels both familiar and refreshing, inviting to explore the kingdom of Monares with the freedom to forge your own path through a richly detailed world. The Quest‘s charm lies not just in its core gameplay but also in overall style and presentation. Hand-drawn environments, primitive 3D, and character sprites designs combined with 1990s lyrical music evoke a sense of nostalgia. This attention to detail creates an immersive experience that encourages exploration and experimentation, reminiscent of the way early RPGs rewarded players for their curiosity. The game’s structure allows for both lengthy sessions and quick runs, while staying true to its roots. Although The Quest may not innovate within the genre, it still excels in delivering a polished, enjoyable story for all RPG enthusiasts. So if you are one of them, yearning for a taste of a fantasy retro journey, The Quest is an adventure worth embarking on. And a friendly tip at the end: be sure to save some rotten food and contaminated water along your play. You’ll thank yourself later when given one particular mission in the undead city. Otherwise, you risk spending a dozen frustrating days searching for goods crucial for further story progression.

Massive RPG!, old school sword, sorcerery, and adventure. It's the quintessential RPG feeling. Definitely try it just take it for what it is, an old school grid dungeon crawler.
