I think this was the last Kemco game I downloaded and, for mobile devices, I think it either is free or they at least released a free version first (might have ads popping up from time to time on the free version, but I'm not sure).

My impression is that this was supposed to be the first game in sort of a serial RPG experience. At least I know that Hit Point did release a second game along this one's lines.

Always cool to see someone else on the Kemco express, if for no other reason than to watch someone else find new ways of saying that a game is decent and reasonably fun, but doesn't actually match up to the games it was derived from.

Kemco has been bringing a lot of its games to Switch, and I have been buying them as I could. I do plan to go back and fill in the gaps I've missed a bit later, as well. They tend to make quite decent RPGs that mimic interesting classics from the genre's past, and while they don't always nail the finer details, I have enough fun with them that they're in generally a pretty safe purchase for me. Having them on Switch is worth paying the extra price up front. It's enough better a device for games in general that if I'm going to spend a few hours with a game, I'll enjoy it enough more on Switch to justify the difference.

As for the mention of it potentially being a series, that's my impression too, though there was nothing in the game itself to point that way and Kemco or Hit-Point may have subsequently had a change of heart. Thanks for reading!

Perhaps it really is a doorway, and if you choose to go inside, you'll find many unexpected things." - Shigeru Miyamoto on secret doors to another world2
