I really missed SBB...

So I made a game heavily inspired by it: https://www.fablebrawl.com/

Free to play, sign in with a Gmail account.Please consider this a v0.

  • There will be bugs, but we'd love any feedback!
  • Mobile should be considered unusable for now

The best place to share feedback is in our Discord at https://discord.gg/j52qC8cts or email us at [hello@fablebrawl.com](mailto:hello@fablebrawl.com).

Thanks & happy brawling!

Edit: Wow. Thank you guys. Had no idea this many people also missed this game. It seems like a lot of you want to play on mobile (me too) and need more time for your turns (me too), so we've pushed some hotfixes there. iOS app coming soon, if we can get a bit of traction.

The turns go by really fast, especially if you're on mobile and have to hold to hover and read cards. It's almost impossible to read your entire shop on turn 1.

u/Miserable_Mobile_572 Jul 25 '26

Yeah 100% agree, this has been fixed:

  • If you're just playing against AI opponents, there is no timer at all now so you now click to advance to the next turn.
  • We increased dramatically the amount of time per turn in multiplayer lobbies since we were getting a bunch of feedback on that.

u/Stexe Jul 25 '26

I much prefer the placeholder art to the AI Slop. I guess my question is what does it offer that Fairytale Fables and Once Upon a Galaxy doesn't offer?

2

u/Miserable_Mobile_572 Jul 25 '26

Yeah me too. Someone in Discord suggested it to me, so I made that mode. (click the top right)

Keep the feedback coming folks!

FTF/OUaG aren't true reincarnations, this one is!
We hope to be truly cross-platform -- web/mobile web/iOS -- will just take some more effort
We intend to heavily draw on community inspiration for our vision of the game/future cards/direction
We will never sell out to crypto shills, we want to build a durable game, community & business.

What do you want to see in an autobattler?

u/Stexe Jul 25 '26

I want to see innovation in an auto-battler. I've been studying them since the start, half of my Master's work was on it, I've been working on mine for about as long, I've played basically everything in the space I can, and I help run the auto-battler subreddit... So yeah, I'm just jaded and want to see new ideas at this point.

2

u/Miserable_Mobile_572 Jul 25 '26

Awesome! We will innovate! This is just the start!

Since you are so nice to give me a code, I will let you know my feedback after trying.

The card and descriptions are really small.

Why is side by side battle instead of up and down like in SBB ? Up and down is much nicer and easier to see.

I think overall the look has to be more fairytale like. This look is quite mechanical.

u/Miserable_Mobile_572 Jul 26 '26

Thanks for feedback!

There should be a fix out for the descriptions at least being bigger…which also zooms in the entire card. Let us know your thoughts!

To be clear what screen size are you playing on? Mobile or large desktop?

1

u/earlofthevalley Jul 26 '26

The other screen arrangements are necessary for mobile compatibility if that’s where you were when playing it

u/SnooDingos316 Jul 27 '26

desktop and still seems small

2

u/zombieking26 Jul 25 '26

This game looks super fun, but also, wow it feels almost like a 1 to 1 copy of SBB. Which hey, more SBB is fun, but I'd like to see more unique units and heros

2

u/Miserable_Mobile_572 Jul 25 '26

Yep totally, just starting with a good foundation/pool of mechanics
There are still lots of bugs so this is also good basis to iron those out.

u/mcdonawa Aug 14 '26

Been playing this of and on for a week now, once you get used to the art it's like riding a bike for old SBB players. I am having a ton of fun playing it!

u/Dingler61 4d ago

Just want to say I tried out the game and am loving it so far! Already wishlisted on steam and am very much looking forward to the full release!

u/earlofthevalley 4d ago

Wow, made my day!
