Description
Deal with the strange and insane inhabitants of The Island as you explore a series of ruins that were discovered beneath the surface.
It’s your 13th birthday so the government says you’re old enough to die in a hole! (It’s all in the name of adventure, so it’s cool.)
Choose from 13 starters and dive into the depths of The Ruins, where every victory unlocks new opportunities. Defeat five critters to open the next door and claim loot, but you’ll face a tough choice: enhance your team or trade treasures for essential supplies. Progress through the site by defeating instructors to unlock more ANIMALs and resources for your expeditions. Adventure has never been so wild—or deadly!
Features
- 251 unique ANIMALs (Fakemon inspired by real-world things) with brand-new artwork and Dex entries.
- A completely original soundtrack.
- Randomized Dungeon runs, ensuring every trip is a fresh experience.
- Multiple bosses to defeat.
- Leaders (Teachers) can be fought in any order, with their teams scaling to your progress, though you’ll have to pay a fee for each battle.
- Teacher teams include ANIMALs from their type specialties, adding variety to the battles.
- Enemies scale with your level, and a level cap keeps things challenging.
- NPCs with randomized dialogue that pulls from hundreds of sayings, quotes, and one-liners
- Character portraits with their dialogue, like most modern 2D RPGs.
- A goofy, sarcastic tone to everything (I’m sorry if you’re not a fan.)
- Appearances by various celebrities, including beloved President, Abraham Lincoln!
- A real, working cigarette item! (Your animals will look so cool!)
- Redone UNOWNs as actual letters
- An easter egg that explains what happened to your dear ol’ dad
- Unique Animal Ball colors and a muted Pokédex color scheme add visual flair.
- A third gender option (Dinosaur, the third gender is dinosaur)
