Become a golden retriever who gets taken away to outer space as its owner has stirred up the whole universe. Unruly alien colleagues are all you have, but it’s no use crying over them. The dice are cast, and this universe will keep moving on!
Golden Record Retriever(GRR) is a roguelike dice-building game featuring dozens of characteristic dice. Unlike its predecessors in the genre, which tend to rely on card systems, <Golden Record Retriever> adapts dice as its core component.
Each journey requires you to recruit teammates. Each teammate is symbolized by a die, and each die consists of unique sides and skills. The probabilistic nature of the dice means that your teammates won't always behave the way you want them to.
Even so, you can't stop trying to control the odds, because eventually teammates of different language families, abilities, and potentials will come together to create synergy and become stronger as a team. As you collect, upgrade, and assemble the analog wooden components, you will soon feel the thrill of being both a victim of luck and its controller.
Breaking the tradition of the genre, Golden Record Retriever also offers a unique structure where you will continue to survive in its ecosystem undying after each unit of adventure. In this way, you'll be drawn into an ever-changing universe as you repeat the journey.
As power groups such as the Cosmic Security Management Organization, a mafia known as the Home Seekers, and the Grass Farmers rebelling against the ruling systems struggle for power, the universe you're in will continue to move and pull you deeper into the game, whether you complete each mission or not.
While developing our debut game, No Umbrellas Allowed, we first gained experience in telling intricate stories through a form of business simulation genre. Through the delicate process of combining the simulation genre with a hardcore storyline, we discovered the beauty and power of storytelling. With the discovery and lessons learned from the debut, we designed Golden Record Retriever to deliver a mind-changing story based on a roguelike dice-building system.
