How it feels

A relaxed, automatic progression game where you watch colorful pixel characters mow down fantasy enemies while slowly unlocking upgrades and story choices.

What players say

Players like the early hours and presentation, but split on the later game. Many say it becomes a slow grind after ten or twenty hours, with few meaningful choices and no offline progress, which forces long idle sessions.
