Towelket 0: Maiden Bomb Invaders

About

Towelket 0: Maiden Bomb Invaders is a free PC-based RPG with a loose narrative structure and quirky character-driven vignettes. Developed by Kanashimi Hocchikisu in 2015 it follows a cast of mismatched protagonists including a time-looping schoolboy an alien on a personal quest and a team of spacefaring maidens with dubious gambling habits. Combat and progression mechanics are straightforward with turn-based battles and light resource management. The story threads often veer into absurdity with overlapping references to earlier Towelket entries though it can be played as a standalone oddity. The game stands out for its chaotic charm and willingness to jump between tones from deadpan sci-fi to slapstick romance. Community feedback suggests it appeals most to those already familiar with the series' eccentric style though newcomers might find the disjointed plot and dated presentation challenging. At 103 days long it’s a brief but eccentric experience with a cult following among niche RPG fans.

Storyline

A strange man who claims to be an alien searches for a girl from Earth he met long ago... A boy on Earth, reliving the same day for the last 103 days, gets picked up before school by his childhood friend again today... A scientist, determined to dig down to Earth's core in search of a mystical being, has just finished creating her newest robot model... A space detective and her cute assistant investigate a horrific incident just reported to them... And a group of maidens, skilled in doing all sort of odd jobs throughout space, prepares to triumph at the casino! Well, except for Ricecake, who's on the lookout for a nice gentleman to sweep her off her feet.
