How it feels

A small, dialogue-heavy RPG with a satirical and darkly comedic tone as you play a crash-landed alien brainwashing humans in a pixel-art suburb.

What players say

Players praise the funny writing and Earthbound-like charm of playing as an alien invader, but disagree on the gameplay: some find the dungeons tedious with long empty corridors and no exp until all party members join, while others enjoy the strategic turn-based combat and short length.
