Giftpia - GameCube

Giftpia offers gamers a totally new RPG experience: no combat, no weapons, no armor--and no clichés! When Pockle oversleeps and misses his Coming-of-Age Ceremony, he finds himself in deep trouble. According to the laws of his island, he has committed a terrible crime and the courts have chucked him into prison. But that’s not all! Because he’s a minor, they've even blurred out his face so no one can see him. Now, he’s promised to pay an incredible sum of money to the island's mayor to hold another Coming-of-Age Ceremony. If he really wants to become a true adult, he’ll have to learn some responsibility and help the many islanders.

Features:

• Experience an offbeat, colorful and stylish alternative to mainstream RPGs. Your island is filled with oddball citizens in need of your help to make enough money to pay for a new Coming-of-Age Ceremony.


• Use your freedom to decide how you want to play and what you want to do. There are dozens of quests, odd jobs and mini-games. You can go fishing, listen to the local radio station, fix up the town or give the locals a hand.


• Avoid the dreaded sleep ghosts! If Pockle stays up too late, sleep ghosts come and haunt him until he finally passes out. The more tasks you accomplish, the more mature Pockle becomes and the later he is allowed to stay out.
  
• Keep Pockle well fed to stave off hunger, too--hunger reduces health, and if he starves, the game ends.
