“Terrific little rogue-lite. I play it with my kids for a super fun couch co-op. The devs have great communication and an interesting roadmap coming up. Two thumbs up.”

“Don't buy this. Or test it out for yourself and request a refund (under 2 hours of playtime). The trailer looks beautiful but the actual game is horrible. I was extremely disappointed. This is a money grab for people…”

“It's great. It's amazing. Honestly, the game right now is a little bit barebones, and there's only like 3 biomes - but the game itself is very charming. It's like a co-op zelda mixed with some caravan light management…”

“I thought that the game had an interesting upgrade system, but that's it. Combat is far too simple for the game and I think that should be a highlighted part of the early access, because it has good bones for structure.…”

“Cute and easy to learn ! Perfect for couch coop in the evening, or playing with friends over distances ! Seems to still be updated too ! A bit repetitive but there is room to improve and learn I play with my sister and…”
“This game is so much fun. Also has VERY good difficulty scaling for endless, which most games typically struggle to find that balance.”
“I was looking for a couch coop rogue lite like this for ages! It's easy to play but still interesting as you have to take care of the wagon! Taking care of the wagon also promotes teamplay. It has just the right amount…”

“Fun concept, but lacks replay ability at the moment. The game gets harder as you go along and your power level DOES NOT scale at the same rate. There needs to be WAY more upgrades to make combat more fun, and gathering…”
“This game is very boring. It's hard but there's basically no variation in the opening minutes. The enemies, all of them, have more abilities than you do.”
“Final boss of the 3rd map has a party wide instakill cold move that has no clear way to counter or stop (despite us having 2 warm upgrades). You have about 1 second to react before you are all dead, and only then does…”

“I will leave a positive review, because I think the game has great bones and deserve to have a chance to grow. However, I did not enjoy the current version and do not plan to play the game any further. It lacks content and meta progression. I will wait for an update, or for the…”

The level of difficulty is good, we've beaten the first two bosses on our second run and are still going, those who are saying its hard are bad at games lol. The game has a nice art style and graphics…”
— a player, Steam review · 2 hrs played“Lots of fun to play with friends and family together. I was extremely disappointed that this game did not have any meta progression. That seems like a basic requirement for any rogue-lite as motivation to play through the game more than once or twice. Would also like a slower…”
