Greetings, misfits! It has been a while. More than 2 years, in fact. Long enough for some of you to reasonably wonder whether Outcast Tales wandered into the Wasteland and got eaten by something with far too many teeth. It hasn't; it was just stuck in a bit of a release limbo, which is now over. So, good news: we are alive. Better news: and fully ready to go. And we finally have something impor…
Continuing from last time... One of your team-mates is exhausted after a long trip. Earth to Valery: we literally just camped out! You decide to urge your crewmate to keep going, but this choice comes with a personal check. Here’s where your personality comes into play. This is definitely a task for Big Buddy. Being a big charming goofball, he gives his big speech and lifts everyone’s spirits.…
Greetings, misfits! ...Who am I talking to? You three, obviously. You’ve got an important mission today, so let’s get on with it. Time for another day in the Wasteland. Let’s see if it proves fruitful, shall we? Setting out Nobody in their right mind would set out for adventure without assembling a party first. The world of Outcast Tales might seem brimming with total loons, and yet you don’t s…

Greetings, misfits! We’ve been through a lot together. The adventures, the drama, the extensively-written devlogs… And we finally arrived at today, a special day. No, we are not releasing Outcast Tales just yet, but we’ve got just the next best thing for you: the Prologue release date announcement! Without further ado, Outcast Tales: The First Journey will release on… January 29, 2024. That’s r…
Greetings, misfits! These past few months, you’ve read many entries about the world of Outcast Tales (formerly known as Ragtag Crew ). Now you’re all prepared to brave the wilds and become the best diplomat/cutthroat you can be! However, this time we’re going a little meta: we know you’ve been clamoring to know more about the current state of the game, and we’ve come with some good news. So her…
Greetings, misfits! Last time we took a peek at the various personalities of Outcast Tales and took some guesses on what kinds of interactions might arise from these hellish concoctions. This time we are diving even deeper into the banter, the contemplation, and the eleventh-hour backstabbing.🗡 As you venture through the Wasteland, it’s not just mindless goons and loot that await you. There ar…
That’s right! Outcast Tales will take part in the Roguelike Celebration Steam Event taking place on October 19 through October 26 . You know, Outcast Tales is not just an exercise for tactical masterminds, or a story of many choices, or a gritty post-apocalyptic tragicomedy. It is also, coincidentally, a video game of the roguelite variety that you can play. And play it you will! In the spirit…
Greetings, misfits! We’ve now spent some time getting to know our enemy and finding ways to deal with various threats. But what about getting to know ourselves? What about the battles fought with words and emotions? One would think this heartless world is all about brute strength and material possessions, but personality does matter! Personalities Stats or a sharp tongue? You decide! Character…
Greetings, misfits! Last time we covered the basics of planning your moves and setting them into motion, like a broken-down-but-still-oddly-amusing Rube Goldberg machine. It’s time to cover a few extra points that should add a bit of spice to your encounters. Status effects They say “making it” is all about money and status. Well, would you look at that: they are right! Especially about the sta…
Greetings, misfits. Your survival in the Wasteland depends on braving the elements, scavenging for resources, and outchatting your adversaries - But even with all this riveting dialogue, your sword (metaphorical, use guns instead) will sometimes be mightier than the pen (also metaphorical, most characters can’t even read, let alone write). Here are some things to keep in mind as you’re playing…
