How it feels
A methodical retro dungeon crawl through a fantasy desert, with turn-based combat and grid movement.

What players say
Players say this is a faithful old-school dungeon crawler in the style of The Bard's Tale and Might and Magic, with grid-based exploration and turn-based combat. The world feels empty with few events, and loot from chests and enemies is rare. Combat cannot be sped up, and there is no way to rest and recover health or mana, forcing slow grinding.
