First of all, great game - I love the textual and visual representation of the characters and their stories. The twists towards the end really got me, especially the machinations within our own tribe.
It hit me even harder since I roleplayed a MC who, in addition to his hypersexual streak (even by his tribe's standards) and reverence for nature, places great importance on the well-being of his people. After the horrors of countless war campaigns he sees a real opportunity in his new diplomatic role with which he also aims to preserve his mother's legacy. I've also seen comments criticizing the Prince's naivety, and while I agree that some respones and choices could be fleshed ou for RP purposes, I see a major reason in his lack of familiarity with the culture of Nubillia and gentry in general (even if, as someone of an íntellectual nature, he has read about it in the Academy's library).
I recently completed the latest version of the game and am hopelessly confused about the outcome, which frustrates me quite a bit. Is that the only “ending” at the moment? Is the confusion intended to add to the cliffhanger, or is my memory after a few long breaks from the game the culprit (I could only faintly remember the flashback scenes with a certain alchemist).
Either way, I'm going to play through the first book in its full glory and without the breaks again because it seems to take some extra time for new content to arrive. On that note, congratulations on your harvest - I mean child ^^
Thank you! Some confusion is certainly intended. Some people have clearly lied to the MC here and again. That may be part of it. I tried to make the narrator fairly reliable, so I hope it is consistent and it clears some confusing pieces.
Wartribe Origins (Chapter 2) Is in the works, and I place a big emphasis on showing the answers to these confusing questions.
Hello author, I saw in your pareton that you have cast a vote on whether to do an ntr. Are you planning to produce an ntr in the second season? As a gallery collector, I need to be mentally prepared
Nah. No NTR. I will admit that story wise, NTR routes are very compelling in contributing to 'realism' so to speak. But even in Origin, I do not want to include it. Yall can continue to suspend some disbelief in some aspects.
well for some reason it doesnt want to launch fRom the itch app but when i go into the files and open it there it works but with no sound at all on the main menu
Sorry. I've had that same problem with Itch app for other games. I don't know how to fix that. Only that if you load it from the files it should continue to work.
The slow buildup and the plot twists kept me thinking of this game for days. Peak 10/10 would play again if my memory was wiped just to relive the experience. HIGLY RECOMMENDED. Sure you won't like it at first or whatever (depends on your tastes) but the plot is SO GOOD. If you are a plot enjoyer or like visual novels or sandbox games for their plot, PLEASE TRY THIS ONE OUT.
The segg is good too ngl but the plot overshadows the segg.
Not really, not if you use fast travel. It definitely has sandbox elements, but it's not your typical sandbox where you must find everything on your own.
I'm working on infrastructure for Chapter 2. Meaning I'm trying to make the code better for the next game at the moment. Which is a continuation of this one! So where this story ends, that one will pick up.
I don't have a lot for chapter 2 at the moment, I have to admit. I had a child recently, so I've put this on the back burner. But in the last 2 months I've started picking up a lot of steam, and I've been steadily working on the code.
Plus, my baby is almost 3 months old, so she can take care of herself. So by the end of the month I think I'll have a sample for everyone to play.
.Then it's good that I've already started to worry that I'll have to choose one and refuse the others. It's very good that this is not the case. Thank you
Yes, that's an end game selection. There are multiple endings possible. I would at least see them all once. Saving at that menu is a good place to have a persistent save.
im trying to download but it says download failed and the link has (javascript:void(0);) attached. I’m fairly ahead in the story but last downloaded V 1.9.2.
Ehh? I've not heard of that error before. I can't really help you, I didn't know the game engaged with any Java. Sorry I'm not more help, but I really cannot figure what that's about.
I think it was a website error. my Pc crashed some time later and i just retried downloading and it worked so maybe i needed to restart my browser or something.
incase anyone else (future comment readers) has a similar experience a browser restart or pc restart might be needed.
if your pc crashes you may have a virus on it. Or too many items processing in the background. Check your task manager to see what is running on your pc. If it’s not the above it could be a faulty fan in the pc causing it to shut down. Depends on your make and model it maybe cheaper to buy a used one from your local pawnshop and you can offer a lower price for the item. I suggest you offer around 80-90% of the price they listed. Hope this helps ;)
finally i finish the game man i love it can't wait for chapter 2 the ending was good but please make our man more strong in this game it's like everyone using him but overall it's a great game and all the best for chapter 2
I believe it unlocks with Rhea's storyline. But if you are having trouble with one storyline, you should swap over to someone else's for some time. They are all connected in some way.
I have very bad memory, forgot the characters look everytime I load the game. Can someone help me. I need a picture of the characters with their names on it.
Yes. Definitely. it is delayed by my newborn, but it will come with time. But do you have any big questions that need answers? I wouldn't spoil them here, of course, but I might be able to tell you if the first release will tell you the answer ;)
Wartribe Academy has gorgeous GFX, good writing, well-thought characters. There’s plenty of action, with more-than-usual amount of incest :) But what I personally dislike, is theme:
MC is just a pawn in a matriarchal society. Has almost no agency, except for the part, when he cleans up someone else’s mess. There’s a lot of intrigue, manipulation, deception. Villains are let go with no consequences. MC seems to say and do what the powers that be want and what would give him hopefully the best outcome; is left in the dark and manipulated from the start. Heck, half of the Romantic Interests despise, deceive and use him and later he apologises to them XD
It’s like reading Robin Hobb’s Farseer trilogy once again. Or Song of Ice and Fire, to some extent. If you like misery porn, Wartribe Academy is a gift that keeps on giving. I personally have enough of that in real life and expect something else in my entertainment.
Hats off to the author, Mr Rooster, for picturing what a life of a newbie prince would look like, in a world where dirty politics are bread and butter and intrugue thrives on the unsuspecting / naive (the MC).
I've never heard of it described that way, but I appreciate the feedback! And also the well wishes, of course. Thank you for playing.
SPOILERS AHEAD:
This chapter ends with the MC in dire straights, that's for certain. And it's not wrong to say that he puts up with a lot throughout the journey, as he tries to stay muted in a place where he hopes to find answers. He lets people walk over him.
That vibe won't be present in the next act, as he quickly finds that the things keeping him restrained are no longer valid. I look forward to writing an aggressive story with a proactive MC. Who takes to task the people that have subjected him to any turmoil. Consider it a long form "Dom Loss". Anyways, it's the game I wanted to see, so I hope people end up enjoying it in the end.
Thank you for replying. At the time of writing my comment I was in a bad mood and now it’s all good.
I know that there are lots of light-hearted AVNs but the “struggle stuff” AVNs are no less enjoyable.
Back in Brandon Sanderson’s “The Way of Kings” there is a story of emancipation for one of the main characters - Kaladin. At the end of the book, all the tribulations are repaid and the new found status of the guy is so much more rewarding and the journey worthwhile thanks to the really hard hardships :P on the way. While not really similar to Wartribe Academy, a fulfilling payoff (in Part 2) would make it an overall enjoyable journey, and this is what I wish for this project.
Haappy new year 2025 to everyone!
You’re doing a great job with the Warband Academy, Mr Rooster, I hope you are safe from the troublesome coming times and will be able to continue your work on this gem.
Cheers!
the fact that you dropped a Brandon Sanderson reference jumped your opinion on the story up drastically. Also I agree with you but I myself thoroughly enjoyed everything up until juna did what she did 🤯

well for some reason it doesnt want to launch fRom the itch app but when i go into the files and open it there it works but with no sound at all on the main menu
I don't think i added sound in the main menu of Wartribe Academy XD
well normally if it has sound on the menu i know the games working if it doesnt i dont know if its working correctly
i still have the problem of it not launching the game from the itch app even after i uninstalled it and reinstalled it
Sorry. I've had that same problem with Itch app for other games. I don't know how to fix that. Only that if you load it from the files it should continue to work.
well maybe you could ask around with some other creators to see if there was a fix to it

Thank you! I try to make it interesting. I hope more people will give it a try too.
No se puede recuperar a juna ? O que hice mal , ayuda porfa no me agrada ese final con ella
Is this VN or sandbox?
It has slight sandbox elements, (Like locations) but is really a VN.
Thanks for letting me know
Anytime
Will your end save transfer over to wartribe 2?
I'm working on that right now!
esta en español
Your work is amazing, the story is super amazing, it's so immersive, thanks for blessing us with such an awesome game! :)
Thank you for the supportive words!
Need Indonesian translate
Is there a moaning in this game
no, it is not voiced
oh man...why... okay no problem I already install it anyway so... thank you and i hope you add moaning in your future games
Is the game finished?
It needs some updates for polish, but the storyline content yes.
The simplest one is Option 1: Download and run WartribeAcademy-v2.0.2-DA.apk
It is the latest version! All up to date
love your game!
near all scenes unlocked,wish to know how to unlock ezra's Master of Water scene.
Many thanks.
I believe that is at the end of the game!
So Is there a difference between manipulating Joy and being honest with her?, Will each option trigger different scenes?
Yes. Each route produces different scenes. The general rule of thumb is that each girl has two routes that ultimately converge.
Which do you recommend?
Hard to say. As the maker I would say, it just depends on how you feel towards Rhea. If you want to be her friend, I wouldn't manipulate Joy.
Is this sandbox?
Not really, not if you use fast travel. It definitely has sandbox elements, but it's not your typical sandbox where you must find everything on your own.
Is this game complete?
I'm working on infrastructure for Chapter 2. Meaning I'm trying to make the code better for the next game at the moment. Which is a continuation of this one! So where this story ends, that one will pick up.
We are really looking forward to the new version of the game. Thank you, we hope to see it soon.
I don't have a lot for chapter 2 at the moment, I have to admit. I had a child recently, so I've put this on the back burner. But in the last 2 months I've started picking up a lot of steam, and I've been steadily working on the code.
Plus, my baby is almost 3 months old, so she can take care of herself. So by the end of the month I think I'll have a sample for everyone to play.
Damn, congrarulations on having a baby! Of course we understand, your kid takes priority
.Then it's good that I've already started to worry that I'll have to choose one and refuse the others. It's very good that this is not the case. Thank you
Is it possible to have a harem with all the girls together, not separately, so that none of the girls have to give up
Not at this point. The festival isn't the "End of the story" we're only at an intermission, story wise. So not yet
Well then, I was already starting to worry that I could only choose one and refuse the others. Thank you for reassuring me.
Multi mod
And another huge request to the developer will be possible to add a cartoon mod in 2 parts and add pregnancy in the game settings.
I have my hands full just producing the base game, so I'm afraid I won't have time for that.
If I choose one, I'll lose the others?
Yes, that's an end game selection. There are multiple endings possible. I would at least see them all once. Saving at that menu is a good place to have a persistent save.
Hi, will it be possible to choose all the girls together instead of rejecting one of the girls?

I believe it unlocks with Rhea's storyline. But if you are having trouble with one storyline, you should swap over to someone else's for some time. They are all connected in some way.

I have very bad memory, forgot the characters look everytime I load the game. Can someone help me. I need a picture of the characters with their names on it.
when i launch the game (on itch.io) it does not launch, like it say, "launched" but nothing appeared ? any idea how to fix that ?
There should be a .exe file wherever in your computer you have your itch games. You can load the game there. the first time start up can take a while.
The ending of this game won't let me sleep for a long time. There will be a sequel, right?
Yes. Definitely. it is delayed by my newborn, but it will come with time. But do you have any big questions that need answers? I wouldn't spoil them here, of course, but I might be able to tell you if the first release will tell you the answer ;)
I'll wait for the next release. Best wishes to your family!
No Spanish translation?
I believe it exists, but I did not make one, no.
Where can I report bugs in the game?
My discord link!
I’m not certain I can fully recommend.

Hello, is this game still in development or already completed?
This first part is complete. I'm working on part two which is a new game. But it won't be out for a while.
