Description: Wander around in a daze for a year chatting with furries.
This is something of a Furry issekai. You play a human named Oz, and end up walking through a portal into another world with your best friend Dorothy (get it?). Here in this world furries are everywhere and the only two humans around also ended up coming through a portal years ago. Once you have sort of set yourself up in town, you're told that it will be maybe a year before the scientists can figure out a way of getting you back, and you have nothing to do but wait for that to happen.

This feels like a game for which there was inadequate planning. The characters themselves are kind of interesting, but pursuing them was not satisfying, and they just didn't seem to actually have anything to do with what I could comprehend of the story. Yes, there is some overall plot about a character behaving a little badly, but it wasn't very good. Looking at the game page, there is evidence that the developer made some changes to the writing after a user complained that the black character had an antagonistic role in the game, and in my run at least he had pretty much no role at all (which was the same for 90% of the cast) so I don't know if maybe the coherency was better in a previous version or what. Regardless, all I can say is that the writing in Furries and Scalies makes it feel kind of noobish, but it looks like the dev has made a whole bunch of games, so I'm just confused.
