About this game

Yomp for Zhi is a difficult turn-based RPG about a journey across Holtoss (a region riddled with crime and dangerous creatures). The unlikely heroes have a limited amount of days to rescue people who are going to be killed (including the titular Zhi).

  • No backtracking.

  • No getting lost.

  • 0 HP means a character is dead for good.

  • Fast paced with no long animations.

  • Brutal long lasting injuries/ailments.

  • 41 different characters to hire along the way (and 2 secret non-canon ones).

  • 150+ enemy types!

  • 6 unlockable difficulties and 2 unlockable bonus modes.

  • Most enemies can become temporary allies (referred to as Homies).

  • Dozens of enemy factions so enemies can often be seen attacking each other.

  • Weather conditions (including fog that can obscure the identities of enemies)

  • Under certain circumstances, enemies can return for revenge if they aren't killed.

  • The overworld often has an overwhelming amount of choice (hunting, shopping, selling, stealing, gambling, combining items, working, panhandling, fishing, etc.)

Things to note:

  • A mouse is highly recommended over using a laptop touchpad.

  • No controller support.

  • A successful run usually takes around 1-4 hours. There's a "Save & Quit" feature so you can resume a run later, but loading it will discard the saved run.
