How it feels
A tense, tactical deckbuilder where you balance investigation, underworld cunning, and monstrous impulses in a darkly humorous comic-book city.

What players say
Players praise the 1950s comic book aesthetic and the novel deck-building mechanics, but many find the game grindy and repetitive. Reviews are split: some love the progressive depth and multiple play styles, while others call it boring and unpolished. A significant minority report progress-wiping crashes and game-breaking bugs.
