How it feels

A passive, low-stakes idle game that feels like a gentle background activity rather than an engaging challenge.

What players say

Players use it as a desktop companion, letting their character train while they work or browse. Some find the enemies scaling with the player undermines progression, but most enjoy the simple loop and Quick Time Events for bonus rewards.
