Fretless: The Wrath of Riffson is a turned-based RPG where players wield powerful legendary instruments, gather mighty riff attacks, and save the land from Rick Riffson's devilish goons and musical hybrid monsters!

Fretless is a pixel-art adventure set in Rob Scallon and his friends' diverse musical rock world.

Rick Riffson, boss of the Super Metal Records company, is corrupting the land by trying to own every last note, chord, and song with the help of his goons and deceptive contracts. Embark on a quest to restore harmony in this off-tune, corrupt world with Rob and his friends!

In this turned-based RPG, wield powerful legendary instruments and gather decks of riffs to battle against musical hybrid monsters, SMR goons, and devilish metal enemies.
