R.N.Studio released the PC version of its text-heavy idle RPG Artes Note on Steam on July 13, 2026, following a demo in June. The studio also has another Steam title, Clicker Tactics: Fragments of Memory, in development.
R.N.Studio, an indie developer, brought its mobile idle RPG Artes Note to PC in 2026. The studio released a demo on Steam on June 8, letting players experience the first three chapters of a story that contains over 300,000 characters of text. Save data from the demo carried over to the full version, which launched on July 13. The game is a free-to-play medieval fantasy idle RPG composed almost entirely of text, with item-based microtransactions. It retains the same core mechanics as the smartphone version, which surpassed 100,000 total downloads since its January 2019 launch.
The PC port includes approximately 1,000 types of equipment and 85 dungeon types, each with flavor text. The developer stated that 93% of users rated the story as interesting. A 7.5th anniversary event is running until August 21. Alongside the Artes Note release, R.N.Studio has a development roadmap that includes another Steam game, the incremental title Clicker Tactics: Fragments of Memory. The studio has not announced a release date for that project.
