A fast-paced side-scrolling action game where you collect artifacts, upgrade skills and equipment, and grow your power through repeated runs.

What players say

Players enjoy the early loop of auto-battling and mixing disposable and permanent gear, calling it addictive and well-paced for a few hours. However, many say the endgame turns into a grind because unlocking the skill tree becomes painfully slow, and restarting from level 1 past 3000 meters makes losses feel punishing.
