How it feels

A methodical, atmospheric deck-building strategy game where each turn presents tactical choices in a retro 2D setting.

What players say

Players describe this as a roguelite tactics game with a deep class-and-sigil build system but shallow long-term replayability. Translation issues and unclear mechanics frustrate some, while others praise the variety of viable strategies despite an endgame that grows punishing and grindy.
