How it feels

A fast, arcade-like dungeon crawl where you constantly dodge and shoot through procedurally arranged Egyptian-themed arenas.

What players say

Players praise the core mechanic of dashing to attack and dodge, calling it a smart design that makes the game stand out. However, they warn it is very short (15-20 minutes), has no music or proper story, and requires a controller. The first boss is the hardest, and after that the game becomes easy.
