“Overall the game is a unique way to learn about the culture of the Philippines. I highly recommend it for both kids and adults!”

“The art and music are expressive and charming. The developers went into painstaking detail to ensure the character sprites, monster sprites, and environments are accurate. You can feel and see there is a lot of love put into the whole presentation. The entire audiovisual package is a treat for those who always wanted to imagine the Philippine’s mythical crew of creatures in video game form.”

About This Game

She helps a dwarf translate a mysterious scroll in hopes it will explain why she sees Tagalog words wherever she turns. Aid both human and magical, fight mythical foes, and restore balance to the realm.
