Our take on Osteoblasts
Rather than centering on a conventional heroic adventurer, this RPG follows a resurrected skeleton looking for purpose. Its barebones combat and randomized equipment modifiers put a spare battle system alongside class-specific quests and a story with multiple endings.
What is Osteoblasts?
Osteoblasts is a dungeon-crawling RPG about a skeleton brought back to life by a mysterious Cat Witch.
Choose a class, take on quests, meet other skeletons, and explore dungeons while fighting monsters and the Dogs, the skeleton’s nemeses. The world includes quests tied to specific classes and randomized elements that can change on repeat visits. Loot can carry randomized modifiers that alter skills when equipped. The game features one playable character with multiple classes, items, abilities, and spells, along with multiple endings. Its battle system is described as barebones, its story as heartless, and its difficulty as very high.
