Join The Book of Travels and become a part of a unique social roleplaying experience that doesn’t hold your hand. Inspired by genre classics, this is a serene adventure that sets you adrift in a fairytale world... but it’s also an invitation to roleplay without the restraints of linear missions and plotlines. Feel at liberty to travel the free wilds and vivid cities of the Braided Shore peninsula. Wander deep into the layers of this hand-drawn world, stumble upon its hidden places or unravel one of its many mysteries. There is no overarching goal, no real beginning or end, but for mortal characters the stakes can be high.

Story

Braided Shore is a vast and intricate world, but meetings with other players are few and far between so your chance encounters will be something special. Choose to collaborate together or to survive alone, either way, you’ll be part of the birth of an exciting new online community, one where many stories will be told. But take note: This is a game for wayfinders and wanderers and it won’t plan out your route. Instead it will trust you to to play in your own style and to shape your own journey. Whichever way you choose to travel, you’ll soon be adding your own chapters to the Book of Travels.

What is happening now

Book of Travels is a small-scale multiplayer RPG from Swedish studio Might and Delight that launched in 2021. The game has recently concluded its online service, with servers shut down this past month. Rather than disappearing entirely, the studio released a final patch containing new offline content and a lore compendium to provide closure on the game's narrative. Players can continue experiencing Book of Travels as a single-player title going forward, complete with access to the full soundtrack that the studio made available during the transition.
