A fast-paced, dark fantasy action RPG where you explore a twisted ancient castle and fight demons and monsters.

What players say

Players praise its inventive 30-day time limit and day/night cycle, which create tension and encourage route planning. The combat is simple but effective with distinct weapons, though many note the lack of a block or guard. Bugs are frequently mentioned but mostly don't block progress. A solid, challenging metroidvania with retro pixel art.
