Within this beautiful atmosphere, you’re asked to take control of a party of heroes whose goal-as heroes’ goals usually are-is to traverse the land banishing evil and protecting the weak.īrave Tales is a role-playing game as well as a social game, and considering it’s meant for a casual audience, has a surprisingly deep amount of role-playing gameplay. Its orchestral music adds to these exceptional visuals, and the three together create an impressively well-made sensory package. The game’s characters are extremely well-designed (its red-headed female archer calls to mind Merida from Pixar’s Brave) and its backgrounds are worthy of an animated series. What’s likely to draw you to Brave Tales in the first place is its artwork.

Unfortunately, its potential is limited by its over-dependence on in-game purchases and an overall feeling of incompleteness. Brave Tales, the new fantasy RPG by Avallon Alliance and Renatus Media offers an unusual kind of gameplay (for casual games anyway) and great-looking graphics.

Social games are more or less dominated by the hidden object, sim, and match-three genres, so it’s nice when something other than those comes along.
