About the Game

In LEGEND OF RO you play as Cody, a warrior monk from the tribe of the mouse people, who is tasked with protecting his home village and defending it against the many dangers that lurk in the surrounding forest.

LEGEND OF RO is set in a world long after humans. The mouse people have created a civilization of their own, deep inside the ancient forest. But the mice are few, and their village is struggling. It is your responsibility to help the village survive and grow. Explore the surrounding forest, bring home food and building materials, help construct buildings and infrastructure, and defend the village against dangerous creatures. Craft items, learn new abilities, and gather knowledge about the world around you. The surrounding forest holds many mysteries for you to explore. What is the secret of the ruins that were erected by a forgotten people in ancient times? Are the technological artefacts you find amidst those ruins dangerous, or can they be helpful to your cause? The more you learn and the stronger you get, the more your village grows and prospers. The populace will enjoy an ever increasing standard of living. But that is not only a good thing -- decadence sets in, and you are confronted by a whole new set of problems to solve. Can you ensure the long-term survival of your village and its inhabitants?

This game was inspired by "Universe 25", a scientific experiment conducted by american scientist John B. Calhoun in the 1970s. You can find more information about it on Youtube and Wikipedia.
