'Born Of Bread' Is A Freshly Baked Retro RPG Coming to PC In Summer 2023 - Screens & Trailer

Born Of Bread is a home-cooked retro throwback to classic cartoony RPGs full of fun characters and charming stories for children and adults alike.

To start with, you’ll want your flour golem, Loaf. Put him in a mystical land where he can mingle with his friends and local folk. Although he may not look like much, Loaf might be the hero this land kneads!

Stir in a story of beings from another age causing havoc across the land. And with their mischief comes a great threat to everyone!

Mold an eclectic cast of endearing characters, 2.5D illustrated setting, environmental puzzles, and unique turn-based /real-time hybrid battles. Be sure you know what your enemy is weak or resistant against, as it will take brains and reflexes to thwart Born of Bread’s throngs of foes.

Ensure that each battle in Born Of Bread is live-streamed.​ If the player’s actions entertain the audience enough, they’ll be rewarded with bonuses. Additionally, permanent viewers can offer further objectives to complete for even more rewards.


Born Of Bread is a love letter to family friendly RPGs of yore,” said WildArts Lead Designer and Programmer Nicolas Lamarche. “Inspired by titles like Paper Mario and UndertaleBorn Of Bread creates an enchanting world of endearing characters, whimsical storylines, and clever combat mechanics to make for a rousing nostalgia-tinged adventure. We wanted Born of Bread to tackle heavy topics, such as character growth and the meaning of kinship, while remaining consistently joyful and funny.”

"They don’t make ‘em like they used to when it comes to innocent, endearing RPGs. At least that’s what I thought before I saw Born Of Bread,” said Guillaume Jamet, Head of Publishing for Dear Villagers. “From the first time we saw it we knew WildArts was onto something here, creating such an appealing art style and story. When we saw it had the gameplay chops to support that we were instantly hooked!”

  • One flour golem who possesses a never-ending childlike wonder and a set of odd abilities 
  • A wonderful world ripe with mysteries
  • An eclectic cast of fleshed-out characters
  • A wacky storyline
  • A pinch of light puzzles
