How it feels

a tense, turn-based card battler where you must balance luck and strategy under the constant threat of permanent loss

What players say

Players say the core combat is driven by dice for action points, which can make even prepared runs feel unfair. The freedom to upgrade skills does not compensate for forced defensive builds, and elite enemies often outpace the final boss. Opinions split on whether the randomness is a flaw or a feature for careful management.
