About

A mother fox and her child live together in peace in Romulus Forest. One day, though, the child contracts the rare Romulus disease and the distraught mother wracks her brain to figure out how to save them. She remembers hearing the story that it can be cured by traveling to a certain shrine and eating the abura-age (deep-fried tofu) that can be found there, so she sets out on a journey to save her child.

This interactive fiction game with artwork is inspired by classics like Mystery House. Players guide the mother fox through her journey using a text parser via commands typed in katakana, with responses provided to the player in simple katakana text. Events are also illustrated through simple static 2D illustrations which take up a large portion of the screen.
