How it feels
A turn-based dungeon crawler that feels like a tense, retro-inspired tactical puzzle where limited information adds to the challenge and the slow-burn story slowly reveals a sinister cosmic conspiracy.

What players say
Players describe it as minesweeper turned into an action game, with moving enemies and time limits. Some find the controls clunky and the puzzle too easy, but others enjoy the beautiful ASCII art and short play sessions.
