Storyline

A vast realm is yours to explore, filled with unique locations, strange factions, and a colorful cast of characters. In order to punish the Empire for its sins, the Elder Gods unleashed their power a thousand years ago that ended up devastating the realms. The continent is now a wasteland, riddled with arcane anomalies, swarming with twisted monsters, and haunted by roaming undead even after long centuries of rebuilding. A large selection of stories make up the game’s narrative in the form of events and quests. The choices you make in these often affect your companions and the world around you. Pick your background from trader, mercenary, or explorer; work for factions, follow rumors and trading opportunities; acquire wealth, gain fame, and discover hidden knowledge.

Была бы топ игра, если не несколько бесячих механик.
Тебя прокляли призраки? Божество которое отвечает за мёртвых не в силах тебя расколдовать, у жрецов которые шарят за мёртвых спросить че делать - тоже низя. Бегай по карте и думай, кто его может снять.
Еда которая всегда слишком быстро заканчивается. Прежде чем идти куда то исследовать, ты набираешь на всё бурдюки еды (в каждом городе еда ограничена), закупаешь всех животных в округе чтобы их забить и получить с них еду - весёлая механика.
Квест: пойди в "пустошинейм" и найди там что то. На карте пустошинейм не отмечены, под описание в справочнике подходит четверь карты, конечно оно все удалено от городов, чтобы у тебя заканчивалась провизия и ты мог изучить только 10% за заход. Даун на разрабе, не иначе.

游戏很好玩，可惜没攻略，我看差评基本都是没玩明白导致的，这游戏确实也比较难玩懂，指南也没有中文，可以去社区指南把英文指南翻译一下看看，一些入门套路帮助很大。
[b]多SL[/b]，这游戏膈应人的地方不少，sl很重要，投骰子结果是可以sl的。
[b]补给能多带就多带[/b]，大城市里补给可能会比较便宜，最便宜1散币，碰见就多买点，补给有两块钱的也有三块钱的，补给钱开销很大，另外如果你剩余行动点不够走到下一个地点，除了强行军也可以考虑花两个行动点就地打猎+搜集补给，补充一点吃的（如果剩余行动点不足2就会消耗精力，千万别这么干）。
[b]要注意商队有没有守卫力量/劳动力不足的符号[/b]（右上角会出现圆形标记，或者在队伍页面鼠标移动到士兵/奴隶上也可以看劳动力和防卫需求），保证士兵数量每天都能在警戒状态下扎营，路上士气和服从度就不会爆，也可以适当强行军赶路，强行军会掉士气和服从，然后警戒扎营可以恢复士气和服从，这样只要不欠薪不欠吃的就能稳定赶路。
稳定住行军后，从西北的埃弗那姆往东倒腾各种金属到德温，再从德温往西的倒腾蘑菇酒和其他杂货，顺路收点废金属去埃弗那姆锻造，顺路做行会的运货委托很快就能攒出第一桶金两三百银币，同时把行会好感也攒起来。
跑商需要[b]研究商路[/b]，比如上述的金属和蘑菇酒商路，要多多查看右上角的价格记录研究倒腾什么能赚钱，更前期的地区的话，得温有便宜大理石，晶辉镇有便宜蓝晶石，搭配行会委托跑一跑，攒钱很快，但要注意不要买太多，同一个城市买的多了会涨价，卖的多了会跌价（标记为有需求的商品似乎高价格更稳定一点，没详细研究）。
[b]给商队装备武器和增加防御力的鞍[/b]可以大量提高战斗力，提高骑兵比例，别怕花钱买坐骑，军队有实力后碰见税吏可以干一票（事后要几银币赎罪），能掳到驼兽，一个二十多银币卖了或者留着自己用都很好。
[b]带够斥候，自动侦察必须打开[/b]，选择侦察行军方向成功率更高，可以防止踩地雷，寻找任务的事件地址也要依赖侦察，抠门一点也可以侦察到地点后sl这样省了侦察的行动力节约一天。
[b]阅历是给自己和同伴升级必须的东西（尽量先给同伴升），来源主要是事件和发现新地点[/b]，没别的，也就是说回合制战斗除了事件给的东西是没有任何直接收益的，能不打就别打，但是必须要打的时候也很多，同伴战力很重要，同伴数量也很重要，尽早凑够六个人。
进了一个城市能看的地方都看一遍，有的小选项也给阅历，聊过的人也可能因为道具或者情报变化触发新的对话选项。
玩明白之后还是很好玩的，往任务地点赶顺路做生意，感觉很不错，缺钱了就在自己研究的商路上跑两圈，来钱也不慢。

不行，游戏的经济系统近乎于无，开支过于离谱，以至于无法通过任务以外的方式积累资本，战斗很无趣，决策失败的代价太大，学习成本过高，并不适合游玩

我的地区无法留言，只能这样答复开发者：
感谢开发者百忙之中的回复，我的差评并非为了抨击贬低你们的努力，只是如实的答复了我的游玩体验。
我不知道该游戏的简单与困难模式如何区分，我的游戏翻译中只有荒原模式以及无法解锁成就的失调模式，我自然选择可以解锁成就的荒原模式。
另外我没有完整完成新手教程，只是在新手教程中简单了解了游戏具体操作，我更喜欢自由自在的游玩，在游玩的途中我发现游戏的补给消耗过于庞大，商队补给基本上只能保证十天内的消耗，导致完全无法满足我的探索欲望。
与此同时高难度的游戏过程导致了我不得不重开数次，但每一次的开局甚至任务过程都完全相同让我感觉非常乏味。
游戏的战斗体验也很糟糕，首先是技能的解释会在鼠标指示后短暂显示，但偶尔会失效，我暂时不知道原因，同时技能解释中会附带不知道效果的关键词，需要我进一步查询而不能便捷的长按显示，最重要的是技能命中率，我不知道该命中率是任何工作的，但是连续多次未命中导致全队死亡的挫败感很让人难以接受。技能之间也毫无配合，没有让人感到眼前一亮的惊喜感或者全局掌控的快感。
同时也就是我所说的，决策失败的代价太大了，让人在失败中成长之前就先想要放弃游戏了，无论是聊胜于无的贸易（高额消耗、劳动力和防卫力量的过高增值、仓库太小货物太重），还是完全看运气的战斗（战斗之前的不可预测的敌人，战斗中不可预测的攻击，战斗后完全死亡的队友），还是根本就无法探索的地图（如果没有任务带来的收入，探索就等于死亡）。
当然，游戏的汉化翻译也是一个大问题，很多关键信息翻译的模棱两可，无法理解。

Incredible. Recommended for CRPG enjoyers. It has been satisfying a need I've had since first playing the Sunless Sea and Skies games. So many interesting and fun missions to pursue. The lore is engrossing, with you having to work for it in some places. Characters and stories are engaging and well written, I'd love to have a TRPG setting of this.

Only real complaint is the time commitment. Don't get me wrong, I loved working for the lore and companions stories. The issue is there is no new game+ or boons that transfer over saves to make restarting easier. Meaning, if after playing your first game, you wanted to start a new game to explore different choices or to see content you locked yourself out of (like dismissing a companion before completing their story, like I did). You must restart from scratch, dedicating a lot of hours to getting back to that stage.

这游戏的跑商系统相当鸡肋，属于是越跑越穷，庞大的补给开支让你容易陷入寸步难行的境地，如果不考虑经商，再增加一下任务的奖励，当开放式RPG玩可能还好点。其次这游戏战斗并不爽，如果不鼓励战斗的话，这鸡肋的跑商系统又有什么好玩的呢？

one of the better fantasy worlds out there with captivating lore. wish there were more engaging narrative paths. im in this vibrant fantasy world and the only soldiers/workers i can hire are human men? i want my bands of demonkin or dwarves. the quests are very difficult to follow with little guidance. the leveling system is complex and no one holds your hand outside of the tutorial that doesn't really set you up for the expectations of a vanilla run. and yet ive spent like four days losing myself in the trading system loop, which can be entertaining for a time. combat is brutal and RNG heavy. sometimes an enemy with an evade chance of 15% will evade your resource-heavy consequential attacks four times in a row dooming you to reload or run failure state as the companions are extremely important to the success of your vagrus. I love losing myself in this world, i just wish the combat was more captivatingly brutal and that the economic gameplay was more dynamic.

edit: I WANT A COMITATUS FULL OF SKELLIES

Fun game with great storytelling! You play as a traveling merchant who takes odd jobs here and there. I have never played a game quite like this so it was an adjustment at first, but once I got the hang of things it got easier. Resource management can be tough if you don't plan things out well enough but generally you'll be fine as long as you keep track of things. I've definitely had to reload saves to get myself back on track while learning the game.
Lots of reading to help immerse yourself in the world.

It got repetitive for me after a while, but I still find myself enjoying roaming and trading. Combat is fun at times but the RNG can get annoying. I got it on sale and think it's 10000% worth the price, but I would suggest trying the demo to figure out if it's your cup of tea.

Didn't know if I loved or hated it for the first 12 hours. Enjoyed the tutorial part of the "tutorial", both for tutorial and the narrative world building, then I went in to the main game. I made a number of mistakes and eventually just put myself in a frustrating position where I felt like starting over with all that I'd learnt, and man it's been a blast since then.

Despite reading other reviews I really don't find myself save scumming that much, and if you're having to save scum a bunch you're probably just not using the systems properly and beating your head against the wall. If you're going to look anything up I don't think there's much shame in seeing where you can get companions, after getting some help throwing together a group of 4 companions I was able to progress smoothly and largely find the rest myself.

没有深度游玩的体验，跑商很无聊，每个聚集点的特产只能在市场里面衡量或者从长的没边的背景文本里面找到蛛丝马迹，没有产业一类的系统能迅速锁定货物。回合制战斗也很无聊，队友能更换的装备只有两个饰品槽，属性也不会带来任何战斗加成，必须花额外点数去点特长，战斗内也基本靠赌，先是一两滴血互嘬，然后看哪边能先打出暴击结束战斗。大地图战斗也没什么操作性，选一个策略然后开赌，除非碾压局不然必死人，运气不好在长途运输里面连续遇到几批劫匪你就可以读档了。读档我也遇到几次bug，莫名其妙多了几十个骑兵，点一下减号还会把骑兵全吃掉变成0，装备资金也全被吞掉。最最最关键的是！有容量上限，最多只能装30格货物，为了防止被打劫到崩多带点骑兵的话光是补给就要占六七格，根本跑不爽。有沙漠商旅2一半的跑商水平我也会开心的。

大大超越原本期待的跑商RPG!

第一眼當然是強烈的美術風格吸引
大量文本與獨特的世界觀很適合喜歡長時間遊玩、沉浸體驗的玩家

雖然難度有點硬，但有開放SL讓玩家能自己選擇遊玩體驗

玩到90hr回過神來
甚至有種就算不玩買下來當本書收藏也是很值得的(?)

---接下來是小可惜的地方

晝夜變化與戰鬥一直會有小小的卡頓
因為很容易玩超過1000天累積下來會有點煩躁

因為需要反覆的對話，如果城市的互動介面中有個快捷鍵或者滑鼠右鍵可以退回上一層就好了

前90個小時深陷到不行
但某個時間點突然醒過來發現有點在拖時長的瞬間有點難過
(可能是覺得不用特別拖長也夠好了)

戰鬥操作上有點怪的設計
如果你先選了技能，就沒有辦法看時間軸上你要選的敵人
(因為你點了時間軸他就會直接放出技能)
一般點空白處好像該可以解除選擇技能?

What a lovely game this turned out to be! I was itching for something story rich and immersive, and found the demo of Vagrus. It was great! I played through the tutourial, soaking up all the lore I could while immersing myself, and then was able to free roam play for awhile too. It was brutally hard, just as advertised, but I was hooked! I'm 100 hours into the full game now, and the lore just keeps expanding! So much world building knowledge and things to learn. Combat can be fun once you get the hang of it, and enslave those you fight! Then run back to the nearest settlement and sell them off for a huge profit. This game IS unforgiving. DO NOT feel bad Save Scumming at times. The more you get into it and the more you learn how to be a vagrus, the less you will have to Save Scum! Try the game! Support the developers who have done a fantastic job for such a small team. Huge kudos for the world that they have built! I will eventually get the expansions, but have not had a need to yet. Game seems huge so far.

I picked this up in a sale and can confidently say it is worth the normal asking price. It is a complex, unforgiving, eventful game that has been frustratingly difficult at times with resource management and just generally staying alive! The world building is fantastic and I don't think I have touched even a fraction of the map as I have been too terrified to go further at the stage that I am at and there has been an absolute abundance of things to do in the trading triangle that I have been comfortable in. If you are looking for a deep, well written narrative adventure then I can wholly recommend VAGRUS, be it as a mercenary adventurer, a trading mogul or just a terrified bunch of individuals like me! Good luck, you may need it.

The first 10 or 15 hours are fun for sure. Managing your crew, keeping the trade business going and following mini story lines. However, after this I felt directionless and the game feels fairly hostile towards the player. At several points, I felt that I was punished for just trying to follow a quest and lost hours of progress having to revert to a previous save. The combat is okay, the progression system is decent but locked behind quests (this is actually a big problem) but it's got a fun gameplay loop. Recommend ONLY if you like crew management games and don't mind being frustrated occasionally.

Vagrus offers a rich, atmospheric world and a genuinely distinctive take on caravan‑based exploration. The writing is excellent, the lore is deep, and the sense of traveling through a hostile wasteland is one of the game’s biggest strengths.

But the balance issues are hard to ignore. Companions—who are absolutely essential for almost every meaningful encounter—are both difficult to acquire and surprisingly easy to lose. The game throws story events and sudden combat encounters at you from the very beginning, yet often you simply don’t have anyone to fight with. It creates a strange disconnect: the game expects you to field a capable crew long before you’ve had a fair chance to build one.

Combat itself is designed to be punishing, and that’s clearly intentional. But the difficulty often crosses the line from challenging into outright masochistic. Many fights feel stacked against you unless you already know what’s coming or are willing to reload repeatedly. It’s less about tactical mastery and more about surviving the game’s unpredictability.

On top of that, provisions dominate the economy to an almost exhausting degree. Food is the biggest cost sink by far, and managing it becomes a constant chore that overshadows the more interesting strategic layers. Instead of feeling like a meaningful survival mechanic, it often just wears you down.

In the end, Vagrus is a fascinating game with a strong identity, but its uneven balance and relentless pressure can make it feel more punishing than rewarding. There’s a great experience buried in there—you just have to fight the game every step of the way to reach it.

This game feels way more like a tabletop D&D campaign than most traditional CRPG games. The writing & worldbuilding are great, and mutually support the actual gameplay where you're the leader of a merchant caravan trying to stay afloat (and maybe even prosper!) in a dangerous Dark Sun-esque world.

One thing that Vagrus nails is the "journey" - you have to carefully plan your travels, not only preparing how you will survive en route, but also how each journey fits into the greater picture of what you're trying to accomplish (which can vary between playthrus). You have to keep moving to sustain your caravan, but you can't do it aimlessly. And there are times where you must take your hard-learned knowledge of how to survive and head out into the unknown, hoping you've prepared well enough for whatever awaits you.

Definitely not for casual strategy gamers though. You have to enjoy reading (the writing is definitely a step above typical game worldbuilding & dialogue). You need to learn how a lot of different systems work and adapt them to fit each situation. There's no guarantee of constant forward progress & power gain like in most CRPGs, and you might face setbacks or even a full caravan death spiral due to snowballing choices you made months beforehand. If that sort of thing sounds fun to you, Vagrus might be up your alley.
