History
“It all started when I introduced Dungeons and Dragons to my kids. Seeing their wide, excited eyes as they went on whimsical adventures, rescuing dragons and catching giant chickens, it inspired me to bring this experience to the next level of immersion – the medium of video games.
This game is a love letter to my kids. I hope the story of Erika and her friends serves as a gentle guide for anyone finding their way around the frustratingly perplexing, yet beautiful world that is the teenage mind.”
