Entitled

Description

This is not a feel-good game. It has not been designed for escapism. You will be thrown into a loop in a system that is hostile towards you. You and you alone can break yourself out of that loop - yes, it is possible in multiple ways. But there are no convenient, scripted mechanics in the game that will do that for you or tell you how.  Continuing to do the same thing over and over, in most cases, won't yield any new unexpected results. Help from the game won't come. You are on your own. 

"Entitled" is very clearly not for everyone. This message isn't here to bait you or challenge you. This is an honest, fair warning. 

You come from Nayas - a tribe famous for its fierce warriors. You arrived in the Tabehoudai Kingdom to save it from the evil Ganomort. You defeat him. The king is relieved. The princess cheers. You're about to be announced the hero... And then you wake up.

It’s your graduation day. You have no money. No roof over your head and a degree in Management that apparently isn’t even enough to get a job at the farm. Joining the Heroes Guild doesn’t seem likely anytime soon. Will you be able to break the 9 to 5 loop and become a hero? Will you rebel against the reality that seems to be designed against you? Or maybe you’ll find solace in calm repetition...

Entitled might feel like any other retro-jRPG at first, but that couldn't be further from the truth. Sure, you can finish the game by defeating the evil Ganomort and rescuing the Princess. But there’s countless ways to go off the beaten path… and not one of them is obvious.

The world of Entitled is a quirky mix of fantasy and real life. Modern economic themes blend with a medieval fantasy setting. One moment you’re delivering swords for the blacksmith, hoping someday you will own a sword of your own and become a proper hero. Shortly after, you pay taxes and attend lectures on supply and demand on the job market. All that to figure out what to actually do with your mediocre life.

If you want to beat the game, you have to first confront your biggest enemy: the misguided notion that you’re special.
