Story

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.
