How it feels

A methodical blend of base-building and tactical combat with a cute dark fantasy aesthetic, requiring patient resource management and strategic decision-making.

What players say

Players are split: some enjoy the cute art and initial loop, but many warn the developer abandoned the game, re-released it as Soul Academy under a new name, and stopped updates around 2023. The gameplay is simple resource building followed by short auto battles, and the late-game grind for resources feels meaningless.
