How it feels
A retro turn-based tactical RPG with a rich fantasy story and a dark comedic tone, blending unit combat and territory management at a relaxed pace.

What players say
Players frequently point out that units die in one or two hits, especially non-heroes, and that ranged attackers dominate. The campaign is described as highly linear with forced progression and no option to skip a turn. Opinions are mixed on whether the love from a small team outweighs the rough balancing, with many calling it a promising but unpolished tactical game.
