Anime streaming service Crunchyroll has announced Hime’s Quest, an 8-bit action adventure game for both the Game Boy Color and PC. Even better, the Game Boy Color version will be getting a physical release via Limited Run Games, and pre-orders are open right now! The PC version will be “free-to-play and download on supported browsers” sometime in December 2022.
