How it feels

A challenging mix of platforming and RPG exploration through a dark fantasy world, where spells alter the environment and the story unfolds through many characters.

What players say

Players praise the puzzle-platformer gameplay and music, but many warn about clunky keyboard controls and punishing instant-death sections. The game offers a Metroidvania-like spell progression system and a 10-20 hour playtime, though some find the story and side quests mediocre.
