About
Your story-driven experience unfolds as turn based combat with a twist- you can beat it no matter your skill level!
So long as you can read, you can see it through to the end! It's like a novel... with visuals... what wizardry!
One night, a blustering storm sweeps the forest. Amidst the tempest, one great tree stands. A burst of lightning strikes from above, splitting the tree clean in half! But as luck would have it, one last acorn is given the chance... and the POTENTIAL... to become the next great tree!
This is you!

You are beautiful, powerful, and handsome! You have everything you could possibly need to reach the perfect spot, and grow big and strong. And what's this? You can speak! What an incredible gift!
Throughout your venture, you harness two core abilities: ATTACK and TALK.
You will need to utilize both to succeed, so choose wisely!


As you ATTACK, you may seem weak at first. But give it time… and your potential will truly show!
As you TALK, you may have to choose your words. Ask what speaks truest to you!
This is NOT you!

This person is strange. Be cautious of him, and other obstacles that you may meet on your journey. You're no doubt well equipped for a character as fearsome as this one.
You may find that he has his own tales to tell. Will you partake in them?
This is the game!

Wow. What a sight to behold! You live in this. But only if you buy it first!

acorn kill rock with hand game good i like
First things first, it's important to note that this game is not an RPG, The description of the game that's likely above this review is not lying - You can beat this game regardless of skill level. Why? Because the only points where you can get a game over are where you can deviate from the fight's script. Don't pick the option that's meant to be picked and you'll either just prolong the fight or lose instantly. The game, in essence, is a visual novel with the theme of, well, potential. The titular character really wants to become a tree and absolutely can be, but cannot conceive of deviating from that goal for long. Murphy the squirel is instead someone who sits on his ass dreaming about things he could do while not being a particularly bad person. The two work off of each other pretty well, and while I'm a little disappointed there's just one ending with no way to change it even in minor ways I do overall like how the story develops. Also, I hate the acorn now. 7/10

Just a really good game. 10/10
enjoyed it well enough until the ending I'm gonna refund it because of that.
I Really love that Squirrel Guy! Murphy. Really Love that Guy . I'm Not done with the Game Yet I Hope Nothing Bad Happens
really fun experience! primarily a visual novel with some cool interactive elements, the writing is really well done and murphy is a really great character. could've been longer, but still a great experience for what it's priced at.
It's an incredibly funny, comfy short game, but there's way too many hints for a second ending that doesn't exist, and the one ending kinda sucks.
i bought this game because i liked the way the funny squirrel looked. i dont regret it so far. i love murphy
