I'd say don't bother.
The one thing that obviously stands out (playing backwards in time, starting fully skilled and becoming less and less powerful as the campaign goes on) loses its charm relatively quickly, followed by the rough realisation that the gameplay offers no actual strategy/tactics and takes away any choice. And you know, for a gaming experience that only offers a single playstyle, I would pick a heavily story driven game instead.
Leveling down instead of up is not a mechanic I've seen before (do I just live under a rock? IDK) but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'd like to see it in other games.
It's a good little game, fun to play, not too long.
Super fun, simple but complex -- very clever design.
Only played a few levels, but like the diverse play. Planning synergy bonuses, damage, hit points, and movement on the battlefield. Custom leader abilities give it a personal touch. Custom battle keeps it interesting. I'm looking forward to where the campaign goes. The light tutorial keeps it simple and enjoyable.
the tactics bit is actually pretty fun... but i wish i could decide anything. The best option is usually pretty obvious (particularly in the "strategy" portion) and the time travel gets boring fast. But that didn't make me quit. You cant save in level and i got a gamebreaking bug with an invisible and invulnerable ballista that shredded my team. Since you cant just reload, this game isn't fun enough to replay a level I've already figured out. And then it had the audacity to ask me for a review... so here it is. 4/10 pretty boring, neat idea executed poorly.
A turn based fantasy game with average story and graphics.. That was ok for me.. I was almost like the game.. But when I found out that character stats decrease for each battle you play things totally changed. What is the point ? Is playing for weakening a good thing ? I find it disturbing..
a good turn based strategy game, i like the visual style and the campaign is an original twist with the levelling down mechanic
This game thinks it's really, really clever. This game is not, in fact, really, really clever. This game is in sore need of a 'rewind turn' button because one wrong click can screw up a whole battle, and the UI makes it really, really easy to make a wrong click. The reverse leveling nonsense feels more than a little annoying and gimmicky, the battles love springing the last-minute surprise that spoils your plans and forces you to replay the whole level nonsense and the whole thing is more tedious than fun. Skip it.
A good challenging and interesting to choose which skills to lose instead of which skill to gain. Personally not a fan of the art style though.
Hey, let's make a game where your character gets weaker as you play through the game! Cool! Or is it....?
It's not. It turns out no one else does stuff like this because it sucks and feels bad.
It feels bad.
Farabel is a great turn-based strategy to add to your ever growing Library.
The story line was intriguing, being able to work backwards from the end. Cendor, the Lord of Farabel starts with all of his attribute points but as you progress backwards through time you must choose an attribute point to subtract. Yes, subtract which gives Farabel a twist to the genre and proved to be really entertaining.
From the Tutorial all the way through the Main Campaign, I found no complaints. It's easy to play, the UI is user friendly and attractive, and of course, the graphics, animation, and sound combined make Farabel a solid game.
An ogre sized Thumbs Up to the creators of Farabel!
I picked up the game at $3 on sale, and that's the price I recommend it at. It isn't a bad game, by any means, but it wasn't very immersive. I beat all of the campaign missions and on many I achieved a gold star without knowing what the challenge even was. Unfortunately the game doesn't feel deep enough or have an interesting enough story to make me want to beat all of it. It is a very simple story, told in a clever way, with combat which is rarely very challenging. It was still an entertaining game, just no Final Fantasy Tactics.
I love turn based tactical games, and I'm especially fond of hex-based games in this genre. I didn't mind the UI and liked the graphics well enough.
That said, the whole going backwards in time gimmick is annoying and I wasn't compelled to keep playing after the first few levels (which appear to be completely scripted, so forget any replayability).
Farabel is a basic hex grid turn based combat strategy game.
It has an interesting progression system for the campaign. You play it backwards, fighting the final battle first then working your way back to the first enemy encounter. The only unit to gain XP is the king, who gets a stat boost with every level. Backwards. As in, each time you win a battle you lose a level and must choose a stat to lower. This does make each successive battle more difficult. It certainly SOUNDS like a good idea. Well... no, actually it doesn't. And, in my opinion, it isn't a good idea in practice either. Made me rather unhappy to win a battle. And, since you must win each battle to progress back to the beginning of the war, there is no feeling good anywhere in the campaign.
Add onto that the fact that the combat system is very simplistic and you don't have a game that made me want to push through to the end. Maybe it gets better farther in. But I do not care enough to find out. Other things of note. The art work is not bad. Kind of cutsie. But not awesome enough to carry the game. The plot is okay. Again, not epic enough to deal with the rest to want to see the end... err, the beginning. We already know the end.
I don't recommend purchasing Farabel. It's not terrible. But it's not good enough to recommend. I got it on sale and I'm sort of regretting it.
Nice little turn based tactics game with a gimmick in that you 'level down' your hero after each battle, which is amusing. Otherwise it's solid but unspectacular. Took me six horus to complete the campaign, so definitely get this on sale.
this is not strategy, its just figure out the puzzle, rules are badly balanced and levels set up so they can only be completed with just one particular method, add in the fact that your characters degrade all the time (they unlevel) this leads to no sense of achievement, you're not sculpting a character you can have any connection with just mitigating deteriation, no wonder it was so cheap....
At first, it was a game that crashed with each achivement, but with a small tweak it seems, which I was informed of by the developers, it has fixed it. while I have not played much, it seems worth the time, and runs fairly smoothly.
Not a bad little game. The mechanics are top notch and graphics very good for indy titles.
However, for this game to reach its potential I feel like it needed some kind of capaign editor and some kinf of workshop integration.
Its a great base for something special in turned based gaming.
I like trying out new approaches. But the "new approach" here completely sucks. Losing abilities and getting worse each time you win does not give a sense of achievement. Does not give a sense of victory or progression.
This is no fun and the game will go to my "ignore" pile.
Farabel is a charming and addictive little turn-based strategy game. The central premise of "turning back time", while interesting to the plot, does not really change the feeling of working through progressively difficult levels. Everything is balanced to provide a good upward hardness curve. However, unlike something like Memento - where gradually seeing the past makes earlier story make sense - I couldn't shake the feeling that Farabel was simply a series of interesting scenarios, without any cohesive plot. Although, lowering the main unit's abilities each turn provides an interesting twist, while working out which specific abilites you can least live without.
Turn-based strategy itself is nuanced and rewarding. It's similar in feel to something like Crowntakers or Banner Saga. Mastery of unit abilities make you feel like you're controlling the battlefield with skill. The optional challenges for each level provide replay value and the battle sandbox with two variations (win a series of battles or survive on a single battlefield for as long as possible against spawning foes) provide plenty of value. Worth every penny even at full price, I would say.
In terms of difficulty, the AI is not afraid to pick on weak units or focus attention on game-losing objective, so it feels like a fair fight, rather than massaging your ego.
Pros:
- Bright, clean style
- Addictive and engaging turn-based combat with interesting unit balances
- AI tries to win
- Varied scenarios
- Story dialogue kept pleasantly tight and short
Cons:
- Animations feel a bit basic
- Enemy units hard to distinguish in some areas (goblin soldiers versus snipers, mounted cavalry)
- Can't rotate the battlefield
- A strange absence of multiplayer skirmish. I don't really play a lot of multiplayer, but I know this will deter some players.
- Line of sight not always clear around scenery
