How it feels

A fast-paced pixel dungeon crawler with a light-hearted supernatural story about blasting spirits and saving a hometown from gentrification.

What players say

Players praise the story, characters, and Asian-inspired setting, especially for those from the diaspora. The core lunar rot mechanic is a unique risk-reward twist, but reviews warn of a steep learning curve, no proper controller support, and a launch save bug that made some saves unloadable. Combat can feel slow or frantic depending on the player, and early access rough edges are acknowledged.
