About this game

Loyal subjects turned into mice must navigate a now-gigantic castle to save their king from an evil sorceress. Each chapter of the storybook campaign reveals new rooms, enemies, and plot twists as your band of tiny heroes fights cockroaches, rats, and a terrifying house cat. The narrative-driven campaign makes this feel like a bedtime story you play through together. Character abilities grow across chapters, and the storybook writing genuinely charms. A family-weight dungeon crawler with real heart.
