How it feels

It feels like a straightforward, fast-paced retro action platformer with a dark fantasy setting and moderate challenge.

What players say

Players say this is a finished version of a 1999 shareware game, and praise its fair difficulty with checkpoints, responsive controls, and charming pixel art. Some note the camera can cause motion sickness and that certain falling platforms make backtracking frustrating.
