How it feels

A cute pixel-art roguelike where each battle feels like a strategic puzzle against procedurally generated monsters.

What players say

Players praise the cute pixel art and relaxing roguelike loop, but are split on the port quality. The story mode is short and easy, while the party mode adds depth with team-building. However, controller support is broken, keybindings cannot be changed, and the overall feel is of a lazy mobile port.
