About

Late at night you enter their world. You will inhabit a girl named Abby and influence the world around her. Accompanied by her brother Michael you will traverse beautiful lands, unfamiliar places, and dark forests. Careful your presence has caught the attention of something sinister...
Many indie RPGs claim to be a new quirky game, but Away From Home is a mix of many great RPGs. It captures weirdness, difficult decision making, and a beautiful story. The game combines traditional RPG gameplay with rhythm game elements! The characters are full of emotion and let you empathize with them. Don't forget that this world needs you.

Imagine if a JRPG and a Rhythm game had a love child. This game plays like Earthbound when it comes to walking and talking in it's overworld, but when it comes to missions and battles it throws in rhythm games related to the event. Characters also have real voices to help create mood and feeling to them. The big highlight of the gameplay is the huge amount of animations. The characters in this world are alive and through your gameplay you will begin to understand.
The amount of things to do in locations are never ending. Chocked full of lengthy side missions that unlock you new moves and items as well as random chance based events. The progression of side quests and random town events are based from entertaining games such as Yakuza 0!
The world is large and will take you hours to complete everything, not to mention alternate routes that bring replay-ability. Some routes include game changing decisions as well as items and battles you wouldn't be able to do had you made different choices.

The setup of these store pages is really confusing. Home is a demo for Away from Home, but Home also has a demo. When running the Away From Home demo, it just opens Home. Neat rhythm game with nice pixel art though.

This game is insane, but in a good way. At first I had no idea what to expect, but the more I played, the more it pulled me in. The story progresses well and the gameplay is a great joy to fight to the music. The visuals are simple but effective and the characters are both funny and sympathetic. I recommend it to everyone
i dont usally play narative games, but i gave this one a shot. overall, pretty good! the dialogues are enjoyable, and rhythm based battle system is very well implemented. never seen anything like that before. a stront recommend from me, 10\10
A solid RPG with beautiful pixel art. It also has unique battle system using rhythm element. However, it might be a bit hard to some inexperienced player.

This feels like a gem of a game that you stumble upon somehow. Rhythm RPG with action-based fight is a rare sight to behold. In my opinion, the closest game to this is Crypt of the Necrodancer. There’s nothing similar to this game as far as I know. And the fact that the gameplay feels like we play on a CRT monitor enhances the experience of the play. It feels like I’m back to the early 2000's where I usually play games with whatever I have.
ゲーム自体は正直無料なのがわけわかんないくらいハイクオリティで面白いです! 特にMOTHERシリーズのような雰囲気が好きな人には是非オススメしたい 2025/5/30 日本語読めない問題は解消されているのを確認したため、おすすめに変更しました。ありがとうございます! ただし、下記の問題がまだ残っております ・一部漢字や記号が表示されていない ・日本語訳が不自然(意味は概ね把握できるがプレイに若干支障あり) ・未翻訳の箇所有り 2025/5/23 日本語では現時点では遊べたものじゃないです…早急に修正をお願いします…何卒… 以下、主なローカライズ不備の内容 ・機械翻訳(英語文章を自動で翻訳してくれるシステム?)なせいで意味不明な文章+翻訳漏れ過多 ・日本語にすると文字のドロップシャドウ(縁取り)処理がバグって文字が読めたものではなくなる… あと設定画面(オプション)がないので色々不便なのと、Sで決定なのでWASD移動に慣れてると決定キーを暴発します…
