I was catching up with life is strange and I heard null mention Neopets, the Darkest Fairy, and holy shit that game slapped.
It was nothing revolutionary and it's probably framed by nostalgia but it had so much soul for a fucking neopets game.

It has sort of... really early twilight princess combat where you have a button mash and a combo and a shield and the occasional gimmick enemy that needs certain strategy or tool. It has it's own version of blight town too, and I remember having to crawl out and buy antipoison jubjubs or whatever and I swear the shopkeep in town was like "I told you not to forget anything!" teehee. Yeah it has a fucking item system and weapon upgrades and stuff.
There's even a bit where you go back to the starting town to get your mom to sign a letter and it's overrun by bandits and it's like "oh yeah, I'm a squire now I can just kill these niggas" and you can. or you can leave. If you stay theyll start out cocky and by the end you have to hunt them down, or if you stand still they'll come to you and kill you while you are AFK. I should mention It has zones like stalker and no fast travel.
Unfortunately there was a save corruption that happened when you reached the pixie girl's part, so when I was a kid I saw the cool wolf guy get flushed down a latrine as the town went full blown twilight-princess-hell mode , and then I got hit by an infinite loading screen right after running around as the pixie. As far as I can tell she was sort of like the item parts of a zelda game. Like when you throw the boomerang. I like the wolf more, but then again of course I did because I was 5.
Cool fact (is it really?), I'm fairly certain this was based on an actual neopets game. There was a dungeon crawler where you played as the wolf guy and went on a mission to rescue the king from an evil wizard. It played like Shin Megami Tensai except fuck no it didn't it played like Final Fantasy 1 with no party members and permadeath. I don't think anyone remembers this game. Shit is surreal.

Edit: No I think you just played as a literal fucking dog. Equipping swords and shit. 90% sure you could kill and sell other dogs and sell their pelts for cash. Someone make a 2 hour long youtube video about the dark and twisted neopets game that broke them.
