About This Demo

RETRYS — A free demo (about 60 minutes) of an RPG filled with both humor and bittersweet emotion.

🏰 A little fantasy of laughter and tears — a story for the grown-up heart.

The stage is a bug-ridden “phantom fantasy RPG.”

You, as the hero, set out on a journey to fix the game’s bugs.
But before long, you’ll face the true mystery hidden within this world...

• A story for adults where humor, nostalgia, and sadness intertwine.

• With the simplest gameplay, no battles or grinding. Relax and enjoy the story — it’s for everyone.

• A meta world blending virtual and real, past and present, failure and hope.

• Pixel art layered with post-effects for a look that is both nostalgic and new.

When this adventure to reclaim an irreplaceable dream comes to an end, you may find yourself wanting to retry your own dreams.

🎮 How to Play

Your goal is to complete the game within one week.

Listen to the stories of RPG inhabitants, find the bug-causing “Bug Mushi,” and eliminate them.

Bit by bit, the game will return to its original form.

Defeating a Bug Mushi grants you its source program, which can be used to solve other problems by making use of its unique traits.

If you get stuck, talk to nearby NPCs for helpful hints.
