Felvidek

About

Felvidek is an indie RPG set in a warped version of 15th century Central Europe where history collides with cosmic weirdness. You play Pavol, a nobleman turned knight whose drinking habit complicates his duty to defend a fractured kingdom. Between fending off real-world invaders like Hussite raiders and Ottoman agents, you'll battle Lovecraftian monstrosities seeping into the world. Party management lets you recruit oddball allies whose skills and quirks shift the tone from medieval combat to surreal detective work. The game’s strength lies in its unhinged narrative twists and character dynamics. Developer Jozef Pavelka layers dark humor into Pavol’s alcohol-fueled decisions, creating a protagonist who’s both relatable and absurd. Early builds showed strong writing and inventive boss fights, though pacing issues occasionally bog down the 20-hour campaign. With its March 2024 release, Felvidek positions itself as a niche title for players craving historical RPGs with a side of cosmic horror.
