Kitaria Fables is an RPG, but does not have a class system, allowing the player to create a custom moveset.[2] In combat, one button is used to attack, one is used to dodge, and a third button is used to cast spells.[3] The player can upgrade their weapons and armor using materials obtained from killing monsters. The player can also farm, growing crops to restore health.[4] The game includes several accessories that provide the player with a stat increase when worn.[5] The game features a variety of areas, as well as many bosses, which respawn every in-game day.[2]
Peace is shattered after a Calamity, who ruled the land one hundred years ago but was vanquished, returns.[3] A cat named Nyanza must save everyone.[4]
