Here are some points that are frequently mentioned:
- The atmosphere of the game is well received.
- The building and resource gathering works well.
- The characters are likable.
However, players need to prepare for a low difficulty level and a clunky inventory management system. Especially at the start of the game, the inventory is still very limited.
The grind is a bit too much for some, as some resources are only available in limited quantities.
If a bit of grinding doesn’t bother you, and you love cats and are looking for a relaxed, beautifully designed co-op RPG, this could be for you.
How is co-op played? The game offers a local co-op mode for a total of two people. You can team up with a friend locally.
Currently, there does not seem to be a matchmaking function. Whether this will be added later is not known.
On which platforms can you play it? Kitaria Fables has been available since September 2nd on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.
Currently, there is a 20% discount promotion on Steam and in the PSN store, and the game is available for €15.99. The standard price is €19.99.
