How it feels

A tense, old-school JRPG with turn-based combat and grid-based navigation through distorted spaces, featuring a mix of mystery and gore.

What players say

Players call this a short, competent dungeon crawler that wears its Shin Megami Tensei influence proudly, especially the Blue Mage-like skill scanning system. The game runs about 5 to 15 hours, and while the story is light, the combat is snappy. Some mention occasional crashes or softlocks, so frequent saving is recommended.
