The story follows Romeo, a kitten on a quest to find his lost toy, resembling a simplified RPG fetch quest set in a single area. Players engage in tasks like finding keys and objects to progress, echoing the mechanics of traditional RPGs but in a more condensed format.
“The story follows Romeow, a kitten who lost his favorite toy, creating an engaging and relatable narrative.”
“In short, this is like those RPG fetch quests but simplified into a single area map... find keys to open doors, find objects to unlock paths... it plays the same as those fetch quests in RPGs, just a mini-sized version of that.”
