How it feels

a frantic deck-building bullet hell where you're constantly weaving through enemy fire while planning your next spell cast.

What players say

Players call it a spiritual successor to Mega Man Battle Network that speeds up the formula into a punishing bullet-hell roguelite. Some find enemy patterns unfair, and there is a split over whether the game rewards deck compression too heavily over traditional deck building.
