Yolk Heroes: A Long Tamago launches to give you a new digital pet obsession, but with an idle RPG twist

• Train your little elf pet and defeat the Frog Lord
• Or just play with your digital friend and chill
• Nostalgic retro-inspired visuals

If, like me, you used to spend hours and hours desperately trying to make a pixelated pet from a small plastic egg love you, then Yolk Heroes: A Long Tamago might just be your cup of tea. As a guardian spirit, you’re tasked with raising and nurturing future heroes of the realm, so it’s up to you to train your little baby elf into a mighty warrior who will save the world from all evil.

Or, you could just play with them as your new digital friend. Who cares about the Fairy Queen and the dark forces of the Frog Lord threatening your world?

In Yolk Heroes: A Long Tamago, you can relive that Tamagotchi feeling across a retro-inspired pet-raising sim-slash-RPG, crafted with love by indie studio 14 Hours Productions. Protect your egg from the relentless weather, and make sure you give them lots of TLC. Then, train them to become an outstanding member of the Adventurer’s Guild, or have them journeying across the land while you’re AFK.

Now, if you’re thinking that your little elf might be needlessly needy, that’s where the idle mechanics come into play – you can simply enjoy your digital pal at your own pace.
