About the Game

Howl is a turn-based tactical folktale set in medieval times. Alone in a world terrorised by a plague that turns people into wolves, you must use your weapons and your wits to survive, planning up to six steps in advance to outmanoeuvre your opponents. As you plot out your attack, you’ll also craft your own prophecy, weaving a continuous piece of scripture during the fight.

The visuals of Howl are created through ‘living ink’, a flowing art style that paints the story as you play. Carve your way through a dark fairytale world, fighting and writing to rid the lands of the plague.

Foretell the actions of your enemies in tactical, turn-based combat
Beautifully illustrated in a unique, living ink art style
Unlock and upgrade new skills like shadow step, exploding shot and more
Save villagers from the claws - or howl - of the wolves
Play through 60 levels in 4 chapters
Plot your route on the world map and pick your battles wisely
