“Arguably best game in whole series. Clunky but predictably, punishing with ways to play around it, real roguelike no hand handling like two crowns, you are on a timer, winter is coming. More people will like two crowns…”

“Harder than Kingdom classic, more rogue-like than Two Crowns. There is no difficulty, the game is just hard. Definitely worth your time if you like rogue-like games.”
“This is a very fun game. It's simple, easy to learn, very few bugs, and has a straight-to-the-point goal. It's difficult, but not to much so, and has interesting challenges.”

— a player, Steam review · 5 hrs played“When a game makes time disappear, even after a confusing start, that usually means it is doing something right. This is the perfect game that gives you just enough energy to turn your bain off while playing, but at the same time, you'll understand when you've made a mistake.…”
— a player, Steam review · 2 hrs played“Just makes you smile playing it. A simple yet captivating little game(hope that doesn't sound too pretentious). Just oozes a fantastical style that's hard to explain. And it pulls it off with pixel graphics no less. Oh, it also happens to be fun :) At least for a few hours here…”
