How it feels

A grim, methodical dungeon crawl where every decision and resource matters and the pixel-art world feels heavy with ancient mystery and peril.

What players say

Players praise the addictive take-3-fight-3 combat loop and the many character builds that make each run different. The retro pixel style and hidden secrets around maps draw comparisons to Dragon Quest meets Slay the Spire, though some note it is a short RPG better approached as a roguelike than a pure rogue-lite, and the difficulty can be punishing.
