How it feels

A lighthearted RPG with fast-paced, strategic turn-based battles and a funny, self-aware story set in an abandoned game world.

What players say

Players praise the clever writing and self-aware humor, calling it a funny parody of JRPGs. The combat is a highlight, borrowing from Final Fantasy X with no random encounters and no accuracy RNG, and each boss fight has a unique mechanic. Most finish the main story in about 10 hours. A few note rough edges in the early game and minor performance issues.
