A punishing but rewarding 2D action roguelike where each death fuels a strategic build and precise combat to restore a dark fantasy ecosystem.

What players say

Players praise the pixel art and music but disagree on polish. Fans enjoy the fast combat and crit system against oversized enemies, while others report bugs, clunky freezes, and limited enemy variety. Some find it boring runs until it opens up, quick runs last 20–30 minutes.
