How it feels
A difficult, fast-paced roguelike with pixel art and a grim atmosphere that feels punishing yet rewarding when playing solo or with a friend.

What players say
Players praise the fast, responsive melee combat and chaos cards that adjust difficulty, but they split on the design: some call the difficulty artificial due to enemy swarms and a floor timer, while others find it fair but punishing. Complaints include a broken fullscreen mode on high-res monitors, co-op lag, and losing all progress on death with no checkpoints.
