Kat and Gon, a pair of well-known explorers around the local area, discover an ancient dungeon that holds one golden dragon fruit in its deepest area. However, due to its extremely intricate puzzle, nobody has managed to reach the end of the dungeon. As the duo are facing a difficult financial situation lately, they have no other choice but to tackle the dungeon on their own. With the two sharing a strong bond of partnership together, there is nothing they can't do...

Characters


Kat

Katherine the Cat, Kat for short, is an energetic cat who has a lust for adventure. Formerly a member of a disbanded exploration syndicate, she knows many tricks up her fur sleeves for a successful dungeon exploration. She also has an unusual strength when it comes to her punch as she can pound the ground strong enough to cause a shock wave as well as thick fur that protects her from extreme cold. She has a dream of living under a comfortable wealth along with Gon, her partner and best friend. 


Gon 

Gonfred the Dragon, Gon for short, is an easy-going Dragon who follows Kat wherever she goes. He has become Kat's loyal friend ever since he ended his brief rivaly with Kat during their time at the exploration syndicate. He has a powerful punch that can break the hardest rock out there as well as a specialized organ to shoot fireball out of his mouth and a skin strong enough for a total immunity to fire. As long as he can find himself an inner piece, he has no problem acting like Kat's personal sidekick.

Objects

Golden Dragon Fruit

The dungeon holds one of them at its deepest chamber. However, It is guarded by many puzzles that require specialized skill set to solve. Nobody knew who built the dungeon and laid out those puzzle inside and where the golden dragon fruit originally came from. But one thing for sure is that it's not an easy task to get one in your hand.


Golden Cherry

Another rare and expensive fruit that's not as valuable as the golden dragon fruit but can be found more commonly. While it is not required to obtain even one of them, one can still be sold for a good price in the right hand. There are 8 of them scattered throughout the dungeon. Can you get them all?
