How it feels

A chaotic and colorful cooperative bullet hell where wizard friends unleash overpowered spell combos while accidentally hitting each other with friendly fire.

What players say

Players say co-op is where the game shines, though matches can feel like four solo runs. Balancing is a recurring complaint, with some spells and characters far stronger than others. The game has matchmaking issues that prevent joining lobbies, and performance can lag in endless mode. Runs are short at around 20 minutes, but progression can feel grindy and repetitive once unlocks are complete.
