A frantic blend of puzzle clearing and dungeon crawling where every move must balance offense and survival in tight, grid-based skirmishes.

What players say

Players praise the unique twist on puzzle action but say it gets repetitive. The game is a roguelike with distinct characters that each play differently, and some note it is more puzzle than typical Shovel Knight. Music and visuals are consistently praised, while a few criticize the gameplay as middling.
