Pixel-art RPGs have taken players to plenty of strange places, but a kingdom threatened by soggy fries and frozen beef? That’s new, but not imaginary anymore, thanks to this one upcoming Steam game.
WendyQuest: Legend of the Four Corner Stones is a free-to-play culinary adventure by Wendy’s, putting the popular fast food chain’s familiar red-haired mascot in the middle of a fantasy quest filled with food-themed monsters, turn-based combat, and colorful pixel-art environments. Developed and published by 81monkeys, this single-player gem has its store page live on Steam right now, but is yet to receive a release date.
WendyQuest: Legend of the Four Corner Stones takes place in Savoria, a culinary kingdom facing a rather unusual crisis. Dr. Mechborg and his organization, Mech Corp, have unleashed a curse called Mechtosis, spreading culinary disasters across the land. Wendy, the protagonist, must collect four magical stones and put an end to the chaos.
The premise is deliberately silly, but the game appears to take its RPG foundations seriously. Players will explore five food-themed regions, including salty forests, seasoned deserts, and frosty mountain peaks, with hidden secrets scattered throughout the world.
