[HiddenX]

The RPG Rising Mist has been released today:

Rising Mist

The balance between light and darkness in the land of Occoterra is upset and Eshudell's last rebels are brutally defeated. And where the light perishes, evil intensifies and grows ever so rapidly. The world awaits the rise of a hero who will take the fate of magical forces into his own hands and without hesitation embark on a thorny journey for a brighter future.

In this fantasy game, you play the role of a heroic rebel. You embark on a journey from city to city in which you search for your allies, gradually revealing the forgotten struggle of the last standing Eshugards and discovering the power of repressed magic that is only mastered by few.

On your journey, you have to deal with gangs of bandits and evil magical creatures. Danger is also posed by intruders who try to infiltrate among the rebels. So choose your allies wisely!

Ensure faster progress in your mission and develop as many skills as possible to finance your trip. Resource management will be key to your progress. Master fishing, farming, cutting down trees, etc. or connect with other artisans and gain knowledge from brewing potions, making curing drops, and crafting magical amulets. Develop trading skills to secure a better status that can help you with allies who are hard of trusting.

Occoterra needs your help, are you ready to take on the challenge?

• 26 different Cities, Towns and places you can visit

This sounds kind of interesting, but there's not a whole lot of information to go on.

It appears to have some kind of turn-based combat but I gathered there's apparently a timer in combat encounters. The developer says while it can't be turned off there should be more than enough time to complete it in easy difficulty. Still, considering how many people seem to dislike any time sensitive quests in RPGs this seems like a poor design choice.

The combat looks way too simplistic, and the game seems simple in general. It's only $15 though so I guess we shouldn't expect much.

Maybe a good RPG for a younger gamer or someone just cutting their teeth on the genre?

Perhaps, it may also be that combat is not the main focus of gameplay. They emphasize resource management and also mention farming, fishing, cutting lumber, etc. so maybe it's more like a StarDew valley with some strategy elements.

Game kinda reminds me of Dead In Vinland. That's just me though.

It seems nice to fill some time.
