How it feels

A methodical dungeon defense game where you command summoned minions and cast spells from your deck to repel waves of invaders in tactical turn-based clashes.

What players say

Players praise the unique autochess deckbuilder hybrid and the depth of the synergy system, but they consistently warn that the game is poorly explained, the UI is frustrating, and the English translation is full of typos. RNG can feel extreme, especially when building high-level synergies, but the core loop holds up well.
