exploring a hazardous world, crafting spells on the fly, with an atmospheric, immersive tone and the tension of roguelike permadeath.

What players say

Players praise the rune-drawing spell system as a standout mechanic but say the game feels incomplete. They note the map is confusing, difficulty is too easy once you craft a powerful spell, and there is little enemy variety or reason to experiment with less useful runes. Some players report crashes from particle effects.
