WILLA & ROTT
AN UNNATURAL TALE OF A GIRL AND HER DOG

Story:
Willa & Rott is the unnatural tale of a girl and her dog. Years ago, an orphan Willa drowns in a nearby lake. The only one to hear her cries of help was her faithful dog Rott. Neither one of them survived, but they will walk the Earth again with a purpose. Since their deaths, they have watched over another orphan like Willa. He is a boy named Toby, and Willa is always there with him.

It is only when Toby is put in mortal danger from the evil Macovius that she can return from the dead for a single night. Willa will have to fight her way through creatures of the night, priests, dream sprites and a zombie hunter named Christian in order to get into the large complex keep of Macovius. Once inside the keep, Will and Rott will need to solve unique puzzles and meet magical allies to help them along the way, before Macovius sacrifices Toby.

This is a story driven game, which means you get very little freedom. I made this game from a screenplay I wrote for this game. It is very short, it takes me an hour and I know where everything is. It might take the average person 90 - 120 minutes to complete the first time. It makes for a great time killer. The reason why it is so short is it was for a competition that needed to be 60 minutes or less of gameplay.

There are puzzles, random battles, boss battles and a few plot twists. Stealth missions, talking rats that give hints and a magical illusion named Bunny that offers you to fight what's behind door #1 or door #2.
