User guide

Ruby & Rusty are a tomato and a beet who live on the farm with Ma, Pa, the scarecrow, and the crows.

One Halloween, Ma put a goofy witch costume on the scarecrow. Unfortunately, the costume had a cursed necklace that turned the scarecrow into an evil witch who took the job of scaring crows way too far.

Ruby & Rusty aren’t going to let the scarecrow get away with bullying their friends! So they decided to go around the farm and find all the crows to make them feel better. And then defeat the evil scarecrow… or at least give her old clothes back!
