I can’t emphasize enough how profoundly this game has affected me. No other medium has pulled me into such a breathtaking and vibrant world like Book of Travels has. The stunning artwork, captivating music, and its soothing, welcoming atmosphere are truly one of a kind. Sadly, 2024 has been a tough year for the developers and their team, leading to a slowdown in development. This makes the future of the game feel more uncertain than ever. So, I urge you to experience this masterpiece while you can, as it might not be around forever. And please, show the devs all the love and support they deserve.

In the first hour I discovered a hidden ruin, rode a train into town, got robbed, talked to a few ghosts, enjoyed a tea house, learned how to scam traders, and activated a mysterious alter. A very relaxing, intuitive, and beautiful game, Book of Travels scratches a massive itch I didn't know I had. That itch as it turns out was the freedom to simply wander and explore uninhibited. There's no right or wrong way to play the game. You don't "win" or save the day, you simply do what you want. Nothing is required of you other than to satisfy your need to explore. Now for some this may sound boring or tedious and if that's you then you certainly shouldn't spend your money on this. For me though, I find it extremely rewarding and I can lose myself just wandering around. I love the character customization also as it gives you the freedom to really get creative and make the character how you imagine him or her. I reallllyy hope they expand the game because I want everything it has to offer. *For the Devs* What you have built here is a breathtaking, highly enjoyable, interactive art piece. You should be proud of what you have accomplished. That said, not completing what you started would be a massive waste and honestly a real shame. I implore you to finish what you started. I realize its not going to generate profits like other games or have astronomically high player counts all the time, but it really could be a staple in the genre and something players like myself come back to time and time again. Please, from the bottom of our hearts, finish the game.

If you enjoy novel, artistic experience, I think this is a must buy. There is no other game like Book of Travels. This is meditation and being present and mindful condensed into video game form, with an unbelievably dense and immersive world and a breathtaking artstyle. The studio recently laid everyone off, and a lot of reviews are saying this is why you shouldn't buy it. I'd like to raise the contrary point of that is why you should buy the game and try it now while you still can. Who knows how long the servers will remain up and this gem of gaming history may be lost forever. I sincerely hope the devs release a single player version, as there is so much this game has to offer and a lot of players have never experienced.

Dear Khelim, I can't tell you how unique, breathtaking, wonderful and remarkable this game is. A visual and musical aesthetic that literally takes us on a spiritual journey of oriental notes, deeply influenced by Sufism and Buddhism. It's not an rpg, it's a complete immersion. This is not a game for entertainment's sake. It's a crucible of events that pull us out of our daily lives and into an inner experience. In my humble opinion, this is what makes this extraordinary project a masterpiece. Although a masterpiece, it's not for everyone, and it's not finished at all. Because it's an out-of-the-ordinary game, because it doesn't aim to take us on anything other than a real journey, it requires a move. Here, I think the gaming community will have to wait, and it's a demanding journey. The MD studio has reported on its recent difficulties, including staff cuts... The lack of communication in recent months was worrying enough, but you'd have to be a moron not to understand that most of the slowdown in the game's development was inevitable. But that shouldn't excuse everything either. The latest updates were disappointing, not to say off the mark. That's understandable too, with the current staffing levels, but again, it doesn't excuse everything. There's no point in investing in redesigning inventory and combat if we're given continuous content. Few updates, but real, substantial updates, announced in advance, will be enough to build player loyalty. Otherwise, the game will disappear, as I expected it would. In its current state, the game isn't worth buying. Yet I encourage you to do so, because it would allow the studio to complete the game. I sincerely hope that the situation will change, and that we'll be able to traverse the whole of Braided Shore, facing memorable challenges and adventures and being surprised by unforgettable encounters. Learn new languages, join secret groups, master the 4 winds... play music for God's sake! Just what I think the developers dreamed of. I'll stop here, as many other reviews have already gone into great detail about the game's mechanics. I'll just finish by saying this: Book of Travels is a game that ā€œentertainsā€ in depth, and for its current state disappoints in depth. Buy it, play it, let yourself be kneaded by an unfinished journey, so that the game can come to fruition and become the journey it was meant to be.

I've been looking for AGES for a slow paced game where I can just travel around selling and bargaining wares. And this game comes out of nowhere and not only accomplishes that but also fleshes it out beautifully. NPCs talk to you about the world. They ask you to bring specific items you may find on your travels. There's political stuff going on. There's COMBAT, something I never imagined I wanted in the game I was looking for but is actually a novel way to do it in this one. You want to relax with a cup of coffee/tea, some sweet bread and lose yourself in a very big world? Get this game. Will buy the devs a Cup of Kindness when I can so they know I am EAGER for them to continue this beautiful game.
