About the game
Boli was an unwanted and neglected child whose parents saw him as yet another mouth to feed.
When a rare disease befell their village and a hero was needed to venture into the wildernes to find a cure, his parents were quick to offer him as a volunteer.
Armed with only a rusty dagger and a supposedly-enchanted potato sack provided by his older brother, Boli must brave the monster-filled wilderness to retrieve a potion from the distant apothecary.
The fate of the whole village is in his hands. Can you guide him through the gauntlet and save the poor village from its terrible fate?
Boli is a retro-style JRPG with hand-drawn ASCII art. It is inspired by 1980s classics like the original Dragon Warrior (Dragon Quest), early 1990s MUDs, and text-based RPGs such as Rogue and Moria. Explore the world as a solo adventurer, fighting or avoiding monsters and building up your skills and equipment to survive the treacherous monster-filled forests.
It features a soundtrack and sound effects created entirely using a vintage 1980s Yamaha TX81Z FM synthesizer.
The game includes a dark mode for those who don't love bright white. It is neither a roguelike nor a roguelite, but rather a short traditional RPG.
