Kharé is brimming with things to do and creatures to meet. Visit the Festival of Thieves, battle a ghost, escape from slavers, gamble your fortune at the Halls of Vlada, drink at the tavern, worship strange Gods, and much much more. Will you uncover the secrets of the city, overthrow the Council, destroy an invading army, or leave Kharé to burn?

From legendary designer Steve Jackson, co-founder of Lionhead Studios (with Peter Molyneux), and Fighting Fantasy and Games Workshop (with Ian Livingstone), and designed and adapted by inkle, the app uses inklewriter technology to tell your journey in real-time, shaping the story around your choices. The text itself changes based on how you play and what you do. In combat, the action is described on the fly based on how you play.

Featuring original illustrations by John Blanche and maps by Mike Schley (Wizards of the Coast).

Ratings and reviews

Everyone complaining about lack of clues should be glad they never played original gamebook version of this from the 1980s. It was 10 times as hard. This version is superior to the dead tree version in every way. Better combat system, better version of the spell system, & more content. Swindlestones exists to net you money that you NEED; this income wasn't available before. This version of Khare still feels as cutthroat as ever without being impossible. Great way to experience a classic.

Very enjoyable text-based adventure/rpg game. You explore a city in search of hidden secrets. Cast spells or fight by hand to get through your problems or face the consequences of death, but don't worry, you can rewind time to fix your mistakes. Collect spell components, magic potions, and gamble your way to riches to afford everything you need to complete your journey. Overall, I really enjoy my experience so far and I definitely recommend. I think this game is definitely worth the price tag.

I LOVED it! Much more difficult than the first game, but we are seasoned adventurers now, aren't we? 😉 I had to go back some (love that feature), and I got confused once or twice. Figuring it out was FUN, though, not tedious. I thought the city was intriguing. Reallly loved the cast of characters. I hope Flanker makes a return! Superb writing, fantastic game. Great job inkle LTd!
