Forward: Escape The Fold

Forward: Escape the Fold is an exciting game that takes you on a thrilling adventure through a procedurally created dungeon that follows the form of cards. In this innovative rogue-like game, you will assume the role of a champion and embark on a relentless crawl through these dungeons, defeating gruesome monsters and collecting items that will power up your abilities. Your goal is to conquer 8 levels of an increasingly difficult dungeon, with each level presenting a unique challenge that will require strategic thinking and smart choices. One of the most exciting aspects of the game is its card-based gameplay mechanics that make each move critical. You must progress forward while avoiding attacking enemies, all while being mindful of the unique effects that each card in the dungeon presents. With every card presenting a new set of effects, each move counts, and strategic thinking is essential. Forward features nine playable characters, each with unique skills and game mechanics, providing a range of options to spice up your gameplay. With over 100 item cards at your disposal, you can create the best possible character based on your position, objectives, and the unique cards you face. The game has 27 active competencies, and you can take advantage of many item combinations to maximize your abilities. There are three game modes available to help players tailor their experience. You must also manage resources, including health, armor, mana, and gold. Death ends the game, making resource management a critical aspect of the gameplay. The dungeons you crawl through are procedurally generated, and turn-based movements require strategic thinking that will make you immerse yourself in the game. Overall, Forward: Escape the Fold is an excellent example of rogue-like gaming, and its success on PC made it irresistible to developer Two Tiny Dice, prompting them to port it to mobile. The game is a 2022 Megamigs Award Winner, Tiny Teams Fest Nominee, and DemoNight Nominee recipient.
