“I'm also pretty sure most or at least some of the positive reviews for this game are bought and not really genuine. While the atmosphere is great, the game itself is lacking so much. There is a lot of stuff lying around…”

“Absolutely awesome game. If you love pixel-ly dungeon crawlers, this game is a must, especially at the price tag. A few minor things, however it is obvious the game creators' primary language is not English. It is still…”
