How it feels

A fast-paced roguelike hack-and-slash adventure with cartoony visuals and punishing permadeath, where you explore procedurally generated levels as Arthur on a quest to rebuild Excalibur.

What players say

Players compare it to a lighter Hades and appreciate the smooth combat and funny story, but many find the fighting repetitive and the progression grindy. Opinions split on the building mechanics, with some feeling they distract from the action.
