The Fable: Manga Build Roguelike

After circulating more than 28 million copies and generating a movie adaptation starring renowned actor Jun'ichi Okada, The Fable heads for a new entertainment medium, where action-packed manga panels are randomly dealt out like cards. Collect and rearrange scene cards  with distinct attributes, then place each picture onto blank pages to plan each character's next move to advance through brutal battles. Get a read on opponents, then place illustrated Attack, Defense, and Move panels in strategic order for a customized combat sequence. Dash into striking distance to deal devastating blows, or assume protective stances to dodge advancing enemies. Make quick work of foes during each skirmish — receiving damage renders rips and holes in the page.

Queue up action scenes for Akira, the highly skilled hitman deadly both up close and from distance, with hand-to-hand combat skills and firearm expertise. Drop in sneaky segments for Yoko to surprise assailants from behind, and ensnare enemies with Suzuki's traps and debuffs. Up the difficulty with Puzzle Mode's one-page battle challenges, and play through scenes from the original manga series repurposed as mini games, including Playboy Kawai's sake drinking competition.
