Fretless: The Wrath of Riffson rocks! The game has so much personality not only in its presentation, but its unique RPG mechanics. Its musical inspirations mesh with a battle system that shreds expectations and creates a fresh take on the genre.

I started playing Fretless a few days ago and it is freaking awesome - a GuitaRPG with musically driven combat, Slay the Spire esque combat but with timed inputs ala Paper Mario. Tons of heart and music homages, made by a prolific music YouTuber and team. Highly recommend youtu.be/3USobO6qRHE?...

Thanks so much! Glad you had fun

Thanks to everyone who bought and played the game, and left us these amazing reviews.

We've been blown away by all your feedback and we're working on a patch to fix the most pressing issues. Will tell you more about that asap!

Hey looks like I can’t DM you but thank you so much! I saw your comment on the video as well.

Guild Wars is like my favorite franchise of all time. All the work you and the team at Anet do is a massive inspiration to me. Really glad you found the video.

I am Jeff btw!

If you're into music games and RPGs you should check this demo out.

(Rob makes awesome bass and guitar YouTube vids but this is the team's first indie title.)

Thanks so much I hope you have fun with it!

FART BARFFF

Fretless is one of my favorite games of the year so far. As someone who is easily overwhelmed by traditional turn-based RPGs, I think it’s such a brilliant entry point into the genre.

And the vibes? Impeccable. What a stellar love-letter to musicians. If you miss Brutal Legend, please play it.

🥹 so happy to hear you like it

😱😱😱😱😱 thank you for the great write up!
