We met with Rob Scallon at PAX East 2024 to talk about his exciting new game, “Fretless – The Wrath of Riffson.” In this game, you play as Rob, a musician on a mission to bring harmony back to a world where music is in danger.
The villain, Rick Riffson, runs the evil Super Metal Records. He’s using a Battle of the Bands contest to trap the best musicians with tricky contracts that bind their souls. It’s up to Rob and his rock-loving buddy to stop him and save the music.
In “Fretless,” you’ll explore a world filled with music-themed challenges, including monster-instrument hybrids and legendary musical animals, all designed in colorful pixel art. Collect powerful riffs, use your guitar for crescendo attacks, and battle your way through epic music fights.
Rob shared his enthusiasm for how the game combines action with a musical story. Keep an eye out for more news as Rob and Ritual Studios perfect this adventurous game.
