“Like everyone else, I want to like this game but the fact it was abandoned and after level 40 all you can do is some bs missions and there's no more story ruins the game, and there's no more levels. It's honestly pretty…”

— a player, Steam review · 37 hrs played“Developer got their bag then abandoned their game. All multiplayer was online and had to go through the developer's servers, and then they killed it without adding the ability to host our own lobbies, so it's permanently single player only. WOLCEN Studio is now attempting to…”
