About Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?!

Have you ever wondered what an NPC gets up to while you are out questing, grinding, and exploring a game world?

Use your potato smiths to forge weapons and sell them to questing heroes. You will meet more than 70 potato heroes, forge more than 200 weapons, expand your business into 20 wacky areas, manage 30 zany potato smiths, discover 10 legendary pop culture heroes . . . and even adopt a potato dog!

Inspired by games such as Game Dev Story, Weapon Shop De Omasse and Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale, Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! is designed to provide an exciting new gameplay experience to fans of this emerging game genre.

The game score is composed by the legendary Kimura Masahiko, who worked on the original score for the Genso Suikoden Series and the Castlevania Series.

Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! is a wacky simulation game where you manage your very own weapon shop and expand its business across an incredible potato world. Use your potato smiths to forge weapons and sell them to questing heroes.

What makes my game unique?

Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! is unique in the way that it showcases the other end of an RPG game. Instead of being the questing hero you are set with the task of outfitting heroes with the most powerful weapons you can craft to aid them in their quests. In addition, Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! is set in a vast potato universe, where all the characters you meet are sentient potatoes. A lot of pop-culture references and jokes come through in the characters and there are definitely characters that everyone can relate to or recognize from movies and other games!

Why could my game win an award?

We feel Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! will win because even though hundreds upon hundreds of games release on mobile every month, no game is quite like Holy Potatoes! With its cute art style, never ending puns and pop-culture references, and easy game play mechanics geared towards all ages, Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?! is a fun game for the entire family.
