“Great game, even better in co-op. The premise is cool, the lore and story are interesting, the gameplay is solid although it can get repetitive and the artstyle is very unique. In a nutshell, your character wields…”
“fun little game to play with friends”
“It's in the name, you're a wizard with a gun. It's fun, I accidentally played this game for about 10 hours straight. I can only imagine how fast the time will fly when playing with friends.”

“me encanto el arte y las armas, me encanto la duracion de las partidas y el manejo del inventario, es una bonita sorpresa por el costo si esta en oferta.”
“A fantastically addictive adventure with a kickin' soundtrack. This game is frankly worth it for the music alone. Go forth! Be a wizard! Shoot guns!!”
“Paid $3, ok game. Badly needs an update.”

“no cross progression, only for host prog very grindy in terms of building and gathering materials slow paced game but the game rushes you by giving you only a small timer to explore the world. constant connection issues”
“It's pretty neat i guess, but that novelty wears off pretty quick. Becauase you have no i-frames when taking damage, there has been several times i go from full health to dead pretty much instantly. The timer doesn't…”
“This game is garbage , but I really , really hate games that put you on a timer and resets all of the time , so maybe that's on me . It feels like the game has a great fun world for you to explore , but then punishes…”

“Great game but honestly a bit overwhelming with the amount of items you need to collect and make. I wish it was a bit more simplified and there was some sort of guide to know what you’re making and how many resources…”
“While this game has good art, music, and ideas, it is way too grindy and monotone for a roguelike. I played it for around 3 hours, and I barely have seen any major changes in gameplay. Maps did not change, they just…”

“This is such a great game, but I can't recommend it until I can play multiplayer with three friends without it being a slogfest, crashing, or actually allows progression for all, not just host. Unfortunately, since…”

“This game is good if you're looking for an action packed shooter like enter the gungeon. If you want a consistent challenge that is not too easy, play on the hardest difficulty or ramp it up inbetween. (The game on…”
