Description

Make a wish. Change the past. Join Jae and his friends on a hand-animated JRPG adventure to undo a devastating loss. Explore a strange world not unlike our own, beat up peculiar enemies using timing-based combat, and annoy NPCs who wish you'd just stop throwing things at them. No grinding required.

Cricket: Jae's Really Peculiar Game is a hand-animated JRPG from Studio Kumiho about loss, loneliness, friendship, and the weird adventures you and your friends got up to.

After a devastating loss, Jae would do anything to fix the past. Blast off with him and his friends on a journey to the gates of Yimmelia, a fabled land on the moon that’s rumored to grant any wish.

This is a modern JRPG inspired by classics, but trims the fat. No grinding. No random encounters. You’ll explore forests, cities, rock concerts and more, with traversal that is always fun and dynamic; you can dash and charge into objects (and people!) just to see what happens. How you treat the NPCs, or annoy them, will influence game events and combat.

Combat incorporates timed hits, with special combinations as you team up with amazing party members. Build the meter, attack and defend, and unleash awesome combos for better rewards!

Traverse forests, explore cities, ruin a rock concert, and crash a fandom convention, all while throwing your JRPG expectations out the window. Experience a modernized take on the genre: no random encounters, a sprint feature, headbutting, and no grinding!

Recruit and travel with five new friends, customize your battle experience with six playable characters, and nail your timed hits to build your meter. Wreck your opponents by unleashing powerful duo and trio attacks! The better you do in combat, the better the loot: more XP, more items, more money!

Freely interact with NPCs during conversations: stand there and listen to them gab, throw items at them, or just walk away! But remember: your actions have consequences, how you treat people in this world affects combat.

Consult with your party members about your surroundings, how to beat enemies, or just to check in on your pals. Dive into the chaotic and overlapping dialogue featuring irreverent conversations and scenarios. You never know what'll happen next!
