Features

A retro jRPG mixed with elements of cozy games. Turn based combat is mixed with an idle quest system, dojo battle gauntlets, fishing, and a world equal parts funny and mysterious.

Class system with wacky choices such as the Codwalloper who attacks with dead fish, Souschef who cooks enemies to turn them into items, the survivalist Scrounger, a parlor magician Rinkydink, and an essential oils salesperson known as the Oilist.

Battle strange and occasional fierce foes using golf clubs, foam rollers, projectile fish in classic side-view combat reminiscent of the 90s. Fill up the ZEST bar and activate it to give a character a huge boost!

The Halite Warriors vs. The Snail

It's called A Snail's Tale that might lead you to believe that the snail is the main character, but nay, friend. The player takes control of Samson Spligglebarp, the noble descendant of a famed historian who is eager to make his own mark on the world.

Samson travels to the Halite Kingdom to enter King Phillippe's challenge, competing against other adventurers for a chance to be a Halite Warrior. The King reveals that he is eternally pursued by an immortal snail who will never rest until he is destroyed. Shenanigans then ensue.
