Overview

About this game

Birthday Boy and Benny is an emotional turn-based RPG set in a colorful world with strange characters that may be even stranger than you first realize. Everything seems so familiar to you - before you were born, you saw your whole life flash before your eyes, just like what happens when you die.

You expected your life to be full of hearing Dad Jokes from everyone. You expected your life to be about writing haikus, eating lots of cakes on your birthday, and maybe exploring some haunted houses every once in a while.

You didn't expect to be abused by your mentally-ill mother. She wishes you were never born. Everything you do annoys her. She hates that you love cake. She hates it when you cry. She hates that you write haikus.

Please, Mother, don't hit me
Again. The sting of hundreds
Of bees is too much.

But...

Maybe things can be okay. Maybe your friends will protect you. Maybe you can finally get away from her once and for all.

Maybe...
