Wendy's Is Making a Turn-Based RPG and It Actually Looks Really Good

Wendy's, the American fast-food chain, is set to release an impressive turn-based pixelated RPG on Steam. Titled WendyQuest: Legend of the Four Corner Stones, the game features a 2D RPG where players guide Wendy on her quest to combat evil mech-monsters and restore a culinary kingdom. The game includes engaging gameplay scenarios such as navigating rivers of spilled sauce and battling foes like french fry-monsters known as Frydusa.

The dialogue in the game also takes a lighthearted approach, with Wendy herself making jokes like, "Looks like he's been writing notes to some guy named Baconator." The game is being developed by 81monkeys, an independent studio from Port Moody, British Columbia. WendyQuest is not the first game from Wendy's; they already released a free 100-page tabletop RPG in 2019 called Feast of Legends, which featured battles against Ronald McDonald.

The studio is also working on another game, World of Anterra, described as an innovative open-world RPG inspired by classic and modern titles. The project has garnered positive reactions from the internet, with users praising its visual quality and dismissing comparisons to previous fast food gaming endeavors. Furthermore, the developers assure fans that the game was created entirely by humans and is 100% fresh.
