How it feels

A stylized, colorful roguelite deck-builder where you assemble a band of musicians to battle demon gangs in turn-based combat.

What players say

Players praise the art and rock aesthetic but are split on the gameplay. Many say it is a solid Slay the Spire clone that is easier and more fun with four characters, though runs feel slow due to 4v4 combat. Critics find it bland, RNG-heavy, and note that late-game balance is off, with one unlockable card reportedly impossible to get.
