The Wheel of Fortune is developed by Takujin software. Takujin software is a small group of like-minded unhinged individuals: the premiere Balkan pioneers of visual novels, interactive fiction, and responsible alcohol consumption. As such, they are rather unique in the region. Inspired by the greats such as Hirohiko Araki, Kemal Malovčić, Crippling Millennial Depression, Macintosh Plus, and more, they strive to provide their users with infinite amounts of questionable interactive text for their mutually useless amusement.
Play the role of a deadbeat internet junkie who wants to turn his life around. Lady Luck is a fickle mistress to you: after years of unlucky breaks, fate has brought three women into your life. Will you take hold of destiny’s reins and start a new life with a hot Balkan waifu, or are you doomed to wallow in post-Soviet depression for the rest of your girlfriend-free days?
The Wheel of Fortune features three Slavic vixens to woo, multiple endings to find, and over 40 beautifully illustrated scenes for your enjoyment. 30+ turbo-folk-infused songs and remixes complement the visual splendor with authentic ex-Yugoslavian melodies, perfect for smashing glasses while intoxicated. Watch the trailer below!
A unique feature of The Wheel of Fortune is, well, the Wheel itself! Every in-game day, the Wheel spins and decides your luck at random. The spin will impact the events of the following day: terrible luck might leave you without dialogue choices or charming opportunities, while the elusive lucky spin may unlock secrets otherwise unknown. Your luck can change every playthrough, even with the same choices!
As this is the first Balkan visual novel, the developers at Takujin Software have taken great care to make it as authentic and representative as possible. Never before has the gaming intelligentsia seen such a detailed and true-to-life adaptation of the Slavic NEET life! In an effort to stay pure to the source material of Balkan lifestyles, The Wheel of Fortune features uncensored illustrations, politically incorrect dialogue and has absolutely no shame in exploiting the Balkan setting, just like a true Illyrian would do! Combined with the globalized appeal of imageboards and internet culture, Wheel of Fortune is an unstoppable force of Balkan anime domination!
The Wheel of Fortune is a one-man passion project made by the disputed chief of Takujin Software, VAISKO, fueled by years of unmitigated anime consumption and questionable life choices.
The Wheel of Fortune will be available on Steam and itch for 7.40 euros on December 1st. You can already add the game to your Steam wishlist!
