How it feels

A frantic scramble to fix a magical mistake using collectible cards in a procedurally generated world, with strategic turn-based combat and a constant sense of impending doom.

What players say

Players say the game has a promising core but is bogged down by grind, limited starting resources that never scale, and repetitive maps. Reviews split on the difficulty: some find it manageable with good builds, others call it unfair and time-wasting.
