How it feels
A slow, deliberate dungeon crawl where each turn feels tense because death is permanent and monsters level up just like you do.

What players say
Players describe a brutal turn-based roguelike where death is permanent and the smart monster AI loots and shops just like you do. Some praise its old-school challenge and randomized levels, but others call it shovelware and complain about a missing resolution setting that makes it unplayable on 4k.
