TBoF (The Book of Fredley)
SteamA dark and silly twist to the retro adventure genre. Explore the town of Humberbumpton as Fredley: once a loving child now turned into a living abyss through the loss of his closest friend.As Fredley's heart broke in two, his tome torn open and it's pages scattered, Fredley sunk into the darkness. Now 6 years later, Fredley must gather the lost pages, and mend his book to bring his friend back.

Pickup keys and other collectables to unlock doors or buff Fredley to change the dynamics of the game.

Fredley is not a fighter and he HATES being molested; a lot of scary things are out there in and outside of Humberbumpton. Sneak past wandering foes and avoid getting spotted, or throw a few firecrackers to scare pursuing enemies.

If all else fails, find the nearest hole and hunker down.

Talking to the various children around the area is a good way to gain some insight and maybe even an upper hand. But they look so tasty... will you consume the souls of the innocent to satiate your hunger and experience a darker and more dynamic journey? Or show mercy and release them for the greater good and maybe a nice shiny item?

TBoF has multiple Unique areas to explore; each more expansive then the last. Numerous enemies with varied attributes and quirks, and different reasons for getting their hands (Or Ghost Jizz) on Fredley.
