Our take on Oswald's Adventure
Rather than centering on a single hero, the game uses a compact party RPG structure with recruitable companions, class differences, dungeon puzzles, and open saving. Its stated 8-to-12-hour length also departs from the longer campaigns often associated with role-playing games.
What is Oswald's Adventure?
Oswald sets out to find his missing sister after learning basic fighting skills.
The adventure takes him through forests, deserts, ice mountains, and fire volcanoes, where he recruits companions and fights enemies. A party can include 4 characters, each with a distinct class, skills, strengths, and weaknesses.

Progression reaches level 99, with more than 75 weapons and armor pieces combined, plus over 30 skills and magic skills. Canoe and ship scrolls open shallow- and deep-water travel, while a portal returns the party to Hero Village.
