Stray Children

If all the adults you knew were monsters who attacked on sight, what would you do?

"The Olders are those things who don't listen to anyone and suddenly get violent, right?"

This is the story of children who live just like this, trying to survive and thrive in a world not quite like our own. This is an RPG adventure that will change the way you think about “children” and “adults”.

THE STORY

Somewhere, in a secret room, in a secret place, a curious boy flips the switch of a dusty old console. He's suddenly pulled through the screen into a very strange somewhere else: a never-released and long-forgotten retro RPG.

He blinks awake in a land where only Children live. Outside their stronghold's walls lurk The Olders: monstrous adults carrying the heavy load of their own inadequacies, self-doubt, and the many other grievances that all grown-ups gather.

It’s here — in this funny, mysterious, and wildly dangerous domain — that your story begins.

THE GAMEPLAY

As you explore the world of Stray Children, you’ll do turn-based battle with these oddball Olders. You can choose to fight, or to use your words as weapons, and land a crushing blow with just a well-worded whisper.

Dodge the barrage of their bottled-up emotions, and discover the secrets they keep hidden deep inside. By touching their heart with your words, you might just be able to save their souls.

What other mysteries await you in this weird new world? Find out in Stray Children — an unfamiliar place, with all-too-familiar troubles.
