For example, you enter a battle like you have a few dozen times already. You are fighting the lunch lady or a deranged werewolf P.E. coach. But before you face your nightmare, a long forgotten friend drops down onto the screen.

You are confused at first but then you remember. It's the virtual pet you lost somewhere in 8th grade.

It tells you that it's very hungry. It last ate in 1996. It notices you have a snack and asks if you'd be willing to give it up.

Should you do it? That snack would be very helpful during the upcoming fight against your P.E. coach. But the pet did say it would give you something worthwhile in exchange...

I won't ruin the surprise here by telling you what you get.

I've been dreaming about this moment for years. The Slumber Realm Demo is going live on Oct 21st!

I'm worried I may have included TOO much game in the demo but it was hard not to. Due to how roguelikes work, the demo can easily be played for many hours. And there is still so much more stuff I'm holding back for the full game!

Wishlist now to be notified when the demo and full game are available.
