Our take on Pet Rock Duty
The premise highlights a bizarre escape and a dangerous pet, but gives limited detail about the school’s layout, the staff’s behavior, or the planning systems. The reference to “other stuff probably” also leaves some of the additional content undefined.
What is Pet Rock Duty?
Search a school trapped in a pocket dimension for items and information needed to open its barricaded exit before the school day ends.
Bobby, a pet rock with spider and flesh-eating traits, has an insatiable appetite and must be tended to during the day. School staff and other creatures also try to stop the escape, so remaining hidden is part of the challenge. The game includes four difficulty levels, each with its own ending and gameplay additions. Ambient music develops with progression. Additional content includes bonus challenges, unlockable extras, funny rocks, and customizable stickers that can be placed on Bobby’s rock shell during gameplay. The store text also mentions other unspecified content.
