About This Game
Features
A retro jRPG mixed with elements of cozy games. Strategic turn based combat is mixed with an idle quest system, minigames, and a world equal parts funny and mysterious.
Build up the ZEST bar to power up your heroes.
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.
Other features include an obligatory fishing minigame, dojo battle gauntlets, tricky dungeon puzzles, and more!
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.
And so begins the quest of Samson and his intrepid companions, the Halite Warriors, to gather the three Crystals of Power and stop the snail before he catches the King.
