How it feels
A nostalgic 2D RPG with turn-based combat and a classic fantasy quest, feeling like a throwback to retro JRPGs.

What players say
Players are split on this RPG Maker JRPG that runs short at 5 to 12 hours. Some praise its exploration and equipment, while others complain of unfair early battles with poison, bugs like broken fullscreen audio and a tiny window, and a tedious backtrack through empty dungeons.
