How it feels

A cheerful, story-driven retro RPG with charming character interactions, turn-based combat, and a lighthearted city adventure.

What players say

Players praise the hand-drawn art, music, and ambition, but the card battle system draws heavy criticism for being too reliant on random card draws. The short 30-minute chapter structure is appreciated, while the RPG Maker engine holds back the experience with dated graphics and jank. The story is considered decent but generic.
