What if you weren't the hero of your story?

You are a plucky young bard from a rural village with musical talent, but not much else to suggest to others that you can save the world. Wandersong is a story-rich RPG, emotional, puzzle and musical adventure game in its own right. Far more than an average platformer, the game design comments and criticises the hack and slash genre of games through dialogue between the Bard and other characters you meet along the way.

Instead of fighting monsters, why not talk to them and help them out instead? Wandersong is inherently pacifist and heart-warming. For what it lacks in difficulty it makes up through emotional story-telling and visual stunning musical sequences.

Difficulty: casual gamers rejoice
Visuals: stylised and cartoony, not for everyone
