Ruu's Goblin Quest.
A short comedy RPG about a stolen bar of soap and the goblins who stand in the way.
What it is.
You play a stylised version of Naomi, who has moved to the Goblinwood to be near her friend Ruu. When Ruu's soap is stolen, Ruu turns into a goblin, and the only way to put things right is to get it back.
The game was made quickly for a friend's game jam, and it is small: ten maps, four kinds of enemy, turn-based battles and a quest tracker. It runs in a desktop browser.
What it does.
-
A short, silly quest
Fight through goblins, a treant and spiders to recover the soap.
-
Turn-based battles
Fights begin when you touch an enemy. There are no random encounters.
-
Odd skills and gear
Your class has skills such as Prepare, Dance and Freshen Up, and you can find swords, outfits and healing candy.

A quest tracker
Your current objective stays on screen.
-
Saves
