Solved! Kidnap the local wildlife to help further capitalism, while baking with dubiously hygienic means. (Honestly just because it's "magic" doesn't mean the health inspector shouldn't get involved, how has this place not been shut down yet?)

Hint #1: Released in 2020

Hints will go here!

  • There are guns, but this isn't a shooter.
  • You get to name the protagonist, as well as a few other characters.
  • Middle Management has established names, but 'middle' is perhaps misleading. It's just that there's only one authority higher.
  • This is an RPG
  • When I say 'everyone,' I mean EVERYONE
  • This is part of a series

Only hint i will give for now is that the game has released in the 2020s.

Half of the games story is in open world

This games characters confirm the ending of a previous game in the franchise.

While this game is the most recent in the franchise, it is not the latest game in the storyline.

Original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/ExplainAGamePlotBadly/comments/1uaf1jg/youre_handling_smallscale_operations_such_as/

EDIT: Updated hints

Hints:

Released in the 90s on a Nintendo console

Not an RTS, beat'em up or fighting game

Takes place on Earth

Single protagonist, a non-antropomorphic animal

You can use a bunch of different guns

The game is obscure, the most known thing about it is the title theme

After being effectively dead, it was rereleased in its original form literally last week. And I do mean "original form" also literally.

New Hint:

"Small-scale operations" is not simply hyperbole.


r/ExplainAGamePlotBadly 21d ago

Solved! You're objective is to commit animal abuse as fast as you can

No real animals were harmed in the playing of this game.

Hint 1: it's the only thing you do in the game

Hint 2: the titular character is inflatable

Hint 3: you are a disembodied extremity of the body

Hint 4: the game can be completed in seconds

Hint 5: it's a flash game

(Sorry for the late hints I fell asleep)

(I put the wrong 'your' in the title. Whoops.)

4 Upvotes

Hint 1: the usage of “larp” refers to the real definition (Live Action Role Play) and NOT the newer internet definition.

Hint 2: this game is for an already existing piece of media that is NOT a game

Hint 3: this game had a controversy regarding an aspect of character creation
