How it feels

A light, humorous management game where you play as an NPC assigning quests, with reactive dialogue and branching outcomes that feel like a comedic visual novel.

What players say

Players appreciate the funny writing and the fresh premise of assigning quests rather than taking them, but opinions split on whether the game delivers on that idea. Many say it is short and simple, with trial-and-error levels and no fast-forward, while others find it addictive and charming.
