How it feels
A linear, story-driven RPG where you experience three distinct narratives across different eras, blending exploration and turn-based combat with a melancholic, pixelated atmosphere.

What players say
A short, story-driven RPG maker game that strips out leveling and grinding for a combat system focused on strategy. Players praise the music and pixel art, but some find the battles unbalanced and the three-part story feels unfinished.
