About Hermit and Pig

Hermit lives a quiet life alone in the woods with Pig…until the two are abruptly pulled into a corporate conspiracy.A factory closure leaves people out of work and hungry. Wildlife starts behaving strangely. And rumors spread of a giant mushroom large enough to feed everyone.Searching for this legendary Jumbo Fungo means fighting strange creatures, surviving exhausting conversations, and following clues that stretch far beyond the woods. Meanwhile, strange blue mushrooms begin calling to Hermit and Pig… 

TIMED TURN-BASED COMBAT! 

Battles play out against the clock. Read your enemy’s behavior, choose attacks carefully, and execute button combos before time runs out. Combos grow longer as the story progresses.“A welcome sense of urgency and strategy in every battle.” — Polygon

CONVERSATION AS BATTLE!

Dialogue encounters function like combat. Say the wrong thing and take real cringe damage. Surviving awkward exchanges allows you to grow stronger and level up.“Validates the internal struggle of social anxiety by turning it into a gameplay loop.” — GameRant

FORAGE AND SURVIVE!

Forage nearly 40 types of fungi to heal, cure status effects, and gain the edge in combat. Pig can sniff out enemy weaknesses in battle or truffles that double as revival items and currency.“Engaging and fast paced combat, cozy vibes, and plenty of scrumptious mushrooms.” — Loot Level Chill

LEVEL UP DIFFERENTLY!

Progression rewards learning and execution. Each level grants a trinket point. Equip trinkets to customize your battle style. You only have so many points, so every choice matters.“Standing out within the genre with its frenetic and consistently fun gameplay” — STWGames Italia

ADJUSTABLE CHALLENGE!

Hermit and Pig is designed around timed, combo-based combat and dialogue encounters. If you prefer a more relaxed experience, you can:
  • Remove combos
  • Disable timers
  • Adjust overall difficulty
These options reduce pressure while preserving the story.“The gameplay was innovative and the turn-based gameplay engaging.” — Minimap

NOT JUST ANOTHER EARTHBOUND-LIKE!

Hermit and Pig draws inspiration from classic RPGs, but it isn’t interested in nostalgia for its own sake. Its key-combo combat systems and dialogue battles create a constant sense of pressure, whether you’re fighting enemies or talking to people. “A charming, retro RPG that does something different with a familiar formula” — Polygon

Additional Notes

  • 6–10 hours depending on play style and exploration
  • Original soundtrack
  • Extensive combat accessibility options
  • Yes, you can pet Pig
“A story-rich, compact narrative that is sure to bring a smile to those who journey with these wholesome companions.” — Destructoid

Honestly SUCH a delightful game. The art = cute, the writing = hilarious, the characters = so wonderfully weird. Highly HIGHLY recommend. I first played the demo, then got offered an extended demo, and now bought the game myself. worth every penny

I loved this little game! Fun rhythm/button combo twist on turn-based combat, especially loved how social interactions were quick-time events. very charming very good

Played the demo for this game months ago and was instantly charmed by it, I'm very happy to have played the full game it was so fun and beautiful. The art is just the most delighful and the tunes are chill; the combat is engaging, the story is funny and hopeful. I get to pet my pig, what else could you want? However I did come across (only!) two problems: 1) Sometimes during the box moving sections I'd get stuck in between a wall the object I'm moving, the game usually sorted itself out if I wiggled around constantly, but I did have to reset the game one or two times because of it. 2) Maybe less a problem and more of spawn/skill issue but I spent the whole game trying to pick every mushroom I saw, but I finished it while missing One type of mushroom (which I picked up during the mine running away section, but then I died so I didn't even get a chance to see what it is). I don't know if it was a rare type of mushroom with a specific spawn but it did break my completionist heart a little. None of these things will stop me from recommending this game to everyone though let's all play this game and have fun :)

Refreshing take on turn-based combat - everything about this game is fun. The music is excellent. This is the first time I've bought the soundtrack for a game on Steam. My only complaint is that it's too short. Sequel!

very cute, very straightforward, big heart. its politics are good, but I wish the delivery was a bit less didactic. would've loved just a smidge more bite (at no sacrifice to the rest)
