What players say

Players praise the creative variety of short chapters spanning text adventure, visual novel, pokemon-like, and retro dungeon, plus an open-source editor. Some find the story messy or repetitive, and a Chapter 1 progression bug is reported. The requirement to submit a custom level for 100% achievements draws negative mentions.
