About the Game

Rapz! is a narrative 2D Dress Up game with about a young girl, Rapulani, with a magical afro who must endure many great obstacles and a gauntlet of an adventure with her magical hair, just to get through the day. Her hair is quite demanding - it doesn’t fit nicely into her swimming cap; her edges don’t lie flat plus she has trouble figuring out how to wash it! You must help Rapulani navigate her complicated 7 year old life and her big hair as she tries to get through the day in order to make it to a friends’ birthday party.

The game has 5 dress up scenes with 6 mini games taking us from her waking up at home in the morning, going to school, participating in a swimming gala, finding her dad and then having to get ready for a friend's party and of course, avoiding the rain from ruining her hair. The cutscenes in between scenes tell the story of this little 7 year old's event-filled day. Expect an easy, relaxed casual game that's quick, cute and fun to play!

Read through tutorial included for young players at the beginning of the game. Play with the sound on where possible.
