Everyone says it so it feels so unoriginal to repeat it, but I gotta. Roadwarden is a better Witcher than the Witcher is. The setting, narrative, the characters. It's all very good low fantasy with critters and swords and quests and lore. Roadwarden's quality is astonishing for a Ren'py game. It's well designed, it's pretty, it's engaging. It's a fantastic visual novel-RPG experience.
It's hard to say much without giving things away. But it's as well written as any fantasy novel I've ever read, it's as engaging as an RPG I've ever played. It's well worth a playthrough or two for any fan of either genre.

A tentative 7 but you HAVE to know what you are getting in to going in to this game. It's a choose your own adventure book more than a game, heavy on writing. Very Witcher-esque in it's setting, it has great world building, lovely pixel art and sound design and rewards you for actually paying attention to some of the flavour text being said. Only thing I would advise is take your time and go unlimited days on the first play through, I regretted having to go home early.
Absolutely amazing experience, it's pretty rare for a game to keep me so hooked that I end up binging it in a couple of days.
Phenomenal worldbuilding, atmosphere, soundtrack, pixel art, I could go on and on, together with really fascinating characters whom you always wanna learn more and more.
It's very text-heavy and if you're not a native english speaker (like myself) you could have a hard time with it but if you're willing to get past that it's a must-play, especially on sale
