Skyrim's Little Brother | The RPG (Minimalistic RPG-Lite Adventure - Demo)
178The RPG is a bonkers RPG-lite game where we take on the role of an adventurer and explore an island, whilst also committing a number of minor crimes.
We have all the main RPG mechanics, such as an inventory, gold, health bar, stamina bar, weapons, all that stuff, but things are just a little bit different.
For example, all the sellable items we collect are just labelled as 'loot', so when we get to a trader we don't need to individually sell plates and ingots and jewels and candlesticks, we just sell all the loot in one go!
The island is populated by many fun cartoony characters (we're one too, with a very big head) and there are many references to popular RPGs, with Skyrim being the most obvious! Yes, there are guards with arrows in their knees, hurrah!
As we explore we pick up quests, we earn money to buy better gear, we commit acts of vandalism and theft, and we even explore the dungeon where we meet the main antagonist of the game... THE GLITCHY DRAGON!
All-in-all, it's bonkers and I love it. Oh we also get fired from a catapult into a farm so that's fun.
NOTE: This is the demo version of the game.

Imagine any fantasy RPG, but with traditional aspects simplified and turned inside out.
You don't need to eat food to heal - just pluck a piece of bread into a wound.
No need to sort out what’s to sell to a merchant: everything you collect is simply considered as "loot" and you sell a pile of such loot by weight.
There is an inventory and leveling up, but no complex skill-trees and inventory management.
The Dragon, the main antagonist(?), constantly glitches and breaks the game's rules. Find out why! Well... or don't. It's your choice, and it matters, like choices in RPGs should.
NO FISHING MINI-GAMES.
Dungeons are held by the Island’s administration. There is a technical floor, the workers of which make sure that torches are lit, traps are working and monsters are healed after a raid. Gritty secrets are hidden on the lowest floors, which can give you a chance to completely flip the storyline.
Carefully plan your targets, moves and ammo. Get ready to sweat!
Stock up with torches. There are plenty of places to explore!
You're stuck on an Adventure Island. There's a local attraction - the Dungeon, where you can raid, explore, loot, gain experience and level up. Just buy an adventurer's ticket, pass a turnstile, enter the elevator and choose the floor.
The workers of the Island's administration make sure that traps are working, torches are lit and monsters are healed after raids. At the first glance, everything seems PERFECT for an aspiring adventurer, so why leave?
Turns out that everything is not as it seems. There's a dark, dirty secret that the Cool King is hiding. Which is not cool. Monsters are tired of the constant respawn loop, their lives are like a groundhog day.
But the main monster, the Glitchy Dragon, went out of control and broke the game's rules in order to find the right person for his (in)genius plan. Maybe it's you? It's up to you to decide!
