Zero-Tours is a traditional JRPG set in a world filled with villages inhabited by anthropomorphic characters dressed in animal costumes. The game’s design is geared towards accessibility, with a lower difficulty level, making it suitable for beginners.

A unique feature of "Zero-Tours" was its use of the Game Boy Advance's communication cable, which allowed players to trade items and animals with others. While the game does mention the feature quite frequently while playing the game, it was completely optional and the game can be fully enjoyed and played through offline.
