How it feels
A tense, tactical turn-based roguelike where every decision in recruitment and combat carries weight against a looming dark fantasy threat.

What players say
Players describe a Darkest Dungeon-like tactical RPG that is brutally difficult with permanent death and limited resources. The campaign is short and missions become repetitive, though many enjoy the challenge and the ironman mode. Some players find the difficulty unfair due to bad design and heavy reliance on dice rolls.
