About the Game

Game Background

The story takes place in a fantasy world where multiple races coexist, including humans, canine-people, tiger-people, and half-beasts. There is a clear class gap between races — tiger-people nobles hold power, while groups like canine-people and half-beasts often occupy a disadvantaged position.

The protagonist, Douglas (a canine-person), starts as a kitchen hand due to his "frail health" and is frequently mocked. However, he possesses far sharper sense of smell and taste than others. Later, he awakens divine powers such as healing and "War Roar," gradually breaking prejudices and growing into a tribe leader.

The world is fraught with crises: external survival threats like ogre invasions, and internal oppression where tiger-people nobles exploit the underclass (e.g., forcing low-price human trafficking). Douglas must lead the half-beast tribe to find a way to survive amid racial conflicts and power struggles.
