“It is fun, but not polished enough as other roguelikes are. Some weapon synergies end up actually being antagonisms. The graphics are just too rough as well. The first boss is underwhelming in its mechanics. It took me…”

“This game is so criminally underrated and I'm so glad I got it for free so I knew about it”
— a player, Steam review · 3 hrs played“if you feel like wasting a couple hours without really feeling anything its great but like as a gameplay experience, very underwhelming”
