Bald im Early Access verfügbar

Die Entwickler dieses Spiels planen, das Spiel zu veröffentlichen, während es sich noch in Arbeit befindet, und möchten es mit dem Feedback von Spielern weiterentwickeln.

Hinweis: Spiele im Early Access sind noch nicht fertiggestellt und können in Zukunft Änderungen erhalten. Wenn Ihnen das Spiel im aktuellen Zustand nicht gefällt, warten Sie eine Weile, um zu sehen, wie sich das Spiel weiterentwickelt. Mehr erfahren

Was die Entwickler zu sagen haben:

Wozu Early Access?

„Rootwoven's core idea — speaking to the world in your own words instead of picking from a dialogue menu — only proves itself with real players. We can author the characters, quests, evidence, and consequences, but the range of things real people actually type is impossible to fully anticipate from a desk. Early Access lets us widen that coverage alongside the people playing: catching the phrasings we missed, tuning how the world interprets intent, and sharpening which discoveries surface when your words, skills, and timing line up.
Rootwoven is our primary project, not a side experiment. We are committed to building it out to a complete three-act story and a 1.0 release, and to working in the open the whole way — shipping regular updates, reading feedback, and adjusting course based on what players find. We would rather launch into Early Access honestly, with players shaping the story as it grows, than ship a closed box and hope we guessed right.“

Wie lange wird dieses Spiel ungefähr den Early Access-Status haben?

„2 years“

Wie soll sich die Vollversion von der Early Access-Version unterscheiden?

„Current state of project is a short demo. We're currently working on Act 1. We plan full game to contain 3 acts “

Was ist der derzeitige Stand der Early Access-Version?

„The current Early Access build is a short, free introductory experience where you meet the main cast and try Rootwoven's two signature systems firsthand:

Natural-language conversation — you speak to characters in your own words instead of picking from a dialogue menu, and the world answers through hand-authored characters and consequences.
Investigation — you examine the world in plain English, and what you uncover depends on what you notice and how you ask.

This build is deliberately small. Its purpose is to let you feel the core of the game — the part we most need real feedback on — before the larger story arrives. It runs roughly 30 minutes and features 9 main characters.
Coming next, as free updates: Act I — the first of three acts — with its full story and investigation threads, followed by additional character routes and an optional Exploration Mode. Act I is in active development now. The "About This Game" section describes the full 1.0 target, and this section will be updated as each piece ships.
Because the conversation layer runs on a language model at runtime, Rootwoven requires an internet connection to play.“

Wird dieses Spiel während und nach Early Access unterschiedlich viel kosten?

„We're not planning on changing the price when we leave early access“

Wie werden Sie versuchen die Community in den Entwicklungsprozess miteinzubeziehen?

„Community feedback isn't a nice-to-have for Rootwoven — it's built into how the game improves. Because you speak to the world in your own words, every conversation surfaces real phrasings we may not have anticipated. Those gaps become our authoring priorities: the things players actually try to say directly shape what the world learns to understand and answer back.
Concretely, we want players to influence:

Which phrasings, questions, and approaches the world recognizes
Investigation difficulty and how discoveries are gated by skill, evidence, and timing
Character writing, route pacing, and which romance routes we deepen first
Quality-of-life, UI, and accessibility decisions

Where to reach us:

Discord — our main hub for discussion, bug reports, and build feedback.
Steam Community Discussions — for threaded feedback and patch notes
Our newsletter / launch list — for longer-form devlogs and milestone updates

We read everything, and we'll be open about what we're working on, what we've changed because of feedback, and what's coming next.“

Infos zum Spiel

NOTE: ROOTWOVEN is only on start of it's journey. We're developing the game with support of community. Your messages, game time and input allows us to make the game we dream about. Thank you for support and understanding. We hope our transparency through the whole development, will give you as much joy as we have. We're starting Kickstarter soon, join us early to get access to new content first! 

ROOTWOVEN is a dark-fantasy mystery visual novel built around natural-language investigation.

Instead of choosing from a fixed dialogue menu, you type what you actually want to ask, accuse, hide, confess, or provoke.

At the Academy, every conversation is a thread. Pull the right one and secrets loosen. Pull the wrong one and people close ranks.

You are not chatting into a void. ROOTWOVEN’s world is hand-authored: its characters, clues, loyalties, quests, and consequences are built to react to the way you investigate. Trust is earned. Suspicion spreads. What you learn — and what you reveal — changes how the story moves around you.

INVESTIGATE IN YOUR OWN WORDS

Question characters naturally instead of clicking pre-written lines. Press for detail. Test contradictions. Change the subject. Deflect. Charm. Threaten. Confess. Stay silent when silence is smarter.

REACTIVE CHARACTERS, NOT DIALOGUE DISPENSERS

The people around you remember what you ask, what you hide, how you push, and whether they should trust you. Relationships can deepen, fracture, or curdle into rivalry and fear.

A MYSTERY YOU UNRAVEL, NOT JUST WATCH

Follow rumors, buried histories, private griefs, and dangerous loyalties through a story shaped by discovery and consequence. The truth is there — but not everyone wants you to reach it.

ROMANCE IS POSSIBLE, NEVER REQUIRED

Every major relationship can shift in its own direction. Friendship, dependence, rivalry, desire, resentment, devotion: how close you become is part of the story, not a side menu.

A HAND-AUTHORED DESCENT THROUGH ONE SCHOOL YEAR

From your first evening at the Academy to the choices that define your ending, ROOTWOVEN follows one long descent through secrecy, ritual, intimacy, and becoming.

Offenlegung von KI-generierten Inhalten

Der Spieleentwickler beschreibt den Einsatz von KI-generierten Inhalten in diesem Spiel wie folgt:

Rootwoven uses AI-assisted image generation as part of its visual pipeline. We use open-source models, self-trained LoRAs, and custom ComfyUI workflows to create consistent characters and backgrounds under our direction.

The images are directed, selected, reviewed, and integrated by us. They are not random prompt-to-asset generations, and they do not replace the authorship of the story, characters, quests, or world.

We know AI art is a dealbreaker for some players. We would rather be honest about that than hide it.

Beschreibung nicht jugendfreier Inhalte

Der Entwickler beschreibt die Inhalte wie folgt:

Character responses generated by LLM's might contain sexual content if user strongly tries to drive conversation, but it's not intentional and we try to block it.
