What Critics Are Saying About Book of Travels:
Book Of Travels’ online cRPG world may be the cure for my break-up with MMOs “I believe [creative director Jakob Tuchten] understands, and maybe relates to, why I’ve broken up with MMOs, which is why I have faith (and even ten hours in, it is still faith) that Book Of Travels is the match I’d been waiting for.” – Rock, Paper, Shotgun

“Book of Travels creates a unique take on the multiplayer experience, with an atmospheric and beautiful game made for smaller groups of players.” – ScreenRant
“Feels like a Shakespearean sonnet written in code – a love letter to a genre that’s become diluted with vapid quests, superficial choices and ostentatious combat.” – Edge magazine
