What players say

Players praise it as an excellent, challenging turn-based roguelike that rewards knowledge and clever thinking over mindless clicking. Many have played it for years on mobile and appreciate the consistent free updates, while some note the keyboard and gamepad controls feel underdeveloped since it was designed for touch.
