Games Like Petal Runner

The Slice-of-Life RPG

Petal Runner is a coming-of-age story set in a solarpunk, pixel-powered open world — dripping with Game Boy Color-era charm and a whole lot of heart.

Join Cali and their foxy sidekick Kira as the two fulfill their lifelong dream of becoming Petal Runners–an elite crew of motorcycle couriers. Deliver and install the newest, most impressive generation of digital pets across a vibrant coastal city.

Welcome To Sapphire Valley

Sapphire Valley is a coastal metropolis split into four districts, each with its own vibe, colour palette, and culture. You’ll meet all types of people, androids, and cute digital pets bursting with personalities that range from "charming," to "wacky," to "wait, stop… scratch-’n-sniff stickers are not actually food!"

Explore every gorgeous corner at your own pace. Take on side jobs. Chat up the locals — human or otherwise. Get into trouble. Get out of trouble. Get scolded by your boss because you were busy with heroic hijinks. (Whoops on that one.)

Hop On Your Bike!

Don't let the retro-inspired visuals fool you — Cali's hand-crafted motorcycle feels satisfying and intuitive as it cruises down the street. And the best part? You don’t have to get off your bike to talk to NPC’s! Hooray! (This was a whole thing during development, in case you were wondering!)

Plan your routes across highways and back roads, make your deliveries, and try not to get too distracted by the incredible scenery.

(WARNING: You will probably get distracted by the scenery. It’s REALLY pretty.)

Wholesome Storytelling

At the heart of Petal Runner is the lifelong friendship between Cali and Kira. Two best friends on a motorcycle, chasing a dream, making deliveries, cracking jokes — living the life they always wanted.

But beneath the candy-coloured pixels and upbeat soundtrack, something isn't quite right. And just maybe, buried under all the sea breeze and neon, there are secrets lurking in the very heart of the corporation that built this world…

With hand-crafted pixel visuals by artist Brandon James Greer (YouTube: BJGpixel), and story contributions from award-winning writer Adam Dolin (God of War, Horizon: Forbidden West), enjoy this emotional (but still totally cozy and fun!) story inspired by classic gaming and 90s anime.
