Jan 17,2025 Author: Hannah

Eldrum: Black Dust, a captivating choose-your-own-adventure RPG, is now available on iOS and Android. Journey through a dark fantasy world inspired by the Middle East, encountering multiple endings, diverse character classes, and engaging D&D-style turn-based combat.

Fans of the classic Fighting Fantasy books will find familiar territory in Eldrum's branching narrative, where your choices directly shape the story's outcome. However, Eldrum goes beyond simple text choices, incorporating richer gameplay elements. Explore a detailed world, engage in strategic combat, and select from various character classes.

Priced at just $8.99, Eldrum: Black Dust offers stunning original art, immersive audio, and multiple endings to uncover. With diverse choices and character classes, the game provides significant replayability.

Beyond Simple Choices

A common limitation of choose-your-own-adventure games is their often limited interactivity. While Eldrum retains the core CYOA experience, it enhances the gameplay with light TTRPG-style combat and mechanics, a feature reminiscent of early Fighting Fantasy books and a common technique for introducing players to new game systems.

Eldrum: Black Dust presents a compelling blend of original art, music, a branching storyline, and tactical combat. While it might not appeal to genre skeptics, those seeking fresh experiences and enjoying the choose-your-own-adventure format will likely find it a rewarding and potentially perfect early Christmas gift.
