A top-down RPG with a calm surface hiding an undercurrent of unease, where you explore a recovering world with turn-based combat and creature collecting.

What players say
Players are split: many condemn the game for its developer's transphobic views, saying the queer-friendly facade feels disingenuous. Others praise the cute pixel art and rhythm-based battle system, but even supporters note the story is shallow and gameplay becomes repetitive.
