Bookwalker: Thief of Tales is a reality-shaping adventure game from TinyBuild Games. In it, players take on the role of Etienne Quist, a disgraced novelist serving out a thirty-year writing suspension. After a “Client” comes to Quist with an offer — enter novels and steal special artefacts from the story to bring into the real world, then they’ll break his “shackles” and allow him to write again — he takes them up on it. Using both the mechanics of a standard first person RPG in Etienne’s real world and an isometric, point-and-click playstyle in the novels, Bookwalker takes the player on a journey through imaginative novels of various genres and tones, all the while hinting at Etienne’s complicated past.
