After a battle with Meka-Dragon leaves the hero cursed, the adventure follows their search for a way to return to human form. Players can choose Hu-Man or Hu-Girl as the starting character.
Explore connected areas, fight monsters, face dragons, and seek out hidden paths and items. Defeating dragons transforms the hero into different animal forms, each with abilities that change how they move, fight, and reach new places.
Collect coins to buy equipment and spells, and revisit earlier areas as new abilities reveal more routes. The game offers three difficulty levels, and players can switch between modern and 8-bit graphics and audio during play.
Players who enjoy the game often praise its hand-drawn art and music, and appreciate being able to switch to the original presentation at any time. Transformation-based exploration and the faithful recreation of a classic are also recurring positives. Other reviews find the movement and combat dated or frustrating, and mention hard-to-find secrets and punishing sections.
