Prophesied as an infant to become either "the darkness to destroy the world" or "the light which saves it", Sandra carefully watches over him and never allows him to leave Rolandia's capital city, Rosaria, or have any contact with the outside world.
However, throughout his childhood Carmaine experiences strange and vivid dreams of people and places he knows nothing about.
When at last he becomes old enough, Sandra tells him it is time to go out and explore beyond the city gates.
Accompanied by Tippi, his tiny fairy-like companion, he leaves the city to discover his destiny.
The game has a complex storyline with branching paths.
During his travels Carmaine will discover different lands and peoples.
Among them are the Growsians, humans who can wield ancient magic, and the Featherians, a winged race of people.
As the story progresses, Carmaine discovers that there are conspiratorial enemies seeking to cause trouble for the land and people.
Carmaine's personality, stats and skills are determined by answering questions at the beginning of the game.
Eventually other characters can join Carmine's party, some whose recruitment requires fulfilling certain conditions.
Romance elements are possible with some party members.
Combat between enemies and the large party of controllable characters is a mixture of real-time and turn-based styles.
Strategic battles occupy the entire location; depending upon where the battle occurs, non-party members nearby (such as townspeople, soldiers etc.) may help the party by joining in.
The 2001 Windows release of the game includes redrawn character portraits of a higher quality.
The 2009 PSP port adds several new characters as well as a new story branch and ending.
About PC
PC gaming spans over four decades, from early DOS titles to today's massive Steam and digital-storefront libraries. Because "PC" covers everything from 1990s CD-ROM releases to current AAA titles, it's the single largest platform by game count on Gamevaro. For collectors, PC gaming splits into two very different worlds: physical big-box releases from the 1990s and 2000s (increasingly collectible, especially complete-in-box with original manuals and inserts) and the modern digital library, which Gamevaro tracks for portfolio and spending purposes even though it has no resale market.
Gamevaro tracks GROWL (itch) for PC with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding GROWL (itch) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PC release dates back to 2019.

No market sales have been tracked yet for GROWL (itch) — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
