How it feels
A thoughtful deck-building dungeon crawl where each run demands careful tactical decisions and adaptation to unexpected encounters.

What players say
Players praise the card art and say the difficulty is satisfying, but many report bad translation, unclear explanations, and bugs. The two starting classes are wildly unbalanced: summoner feels weak and grindy, while elementalist has an overpowered rock fist card. The game is in early access and players expect more polish.
