You play Shawn O'Conner, a young rogue at Hero-U who hopes to become a hero. As he meets fellow students and makes friends or enemies, he also uncovers mysteries surrounding the school and his own past.
By day, attend classes, practice rogue skills, and fit activities around a daily schedule. Choices and passing time shape when events happen, while side quests offer more to pursue around the university.
At night, explore the castle's abandoned wine cellars, sea caves, catacombs, and dungeon. Use weapons, armor, skills, and traps against its creatures; most combat can be avoided, while fighting offers rewards.
Players in the supplied reviews appreciate the game's humorous, warm tone, memorable characters, and mix of adventure and role-playing. One reviewer also highlights its mysteries and exploratory feel. Some describe the charm as a reason to stick with it despite lengthy stretches of routine tasks.
