How it feels
A tense, tactical road trip where every decision and battle weighs heavily against a backdrop of creeping dread and inevitable loss.

What players say
Players split on the shift to a run-based roguelike structure. The removal of the persistent Hamlet and character progression from the first game leaves many feeling detached from their party and frustrated by the grind to unlock core abilities. Combat and visuals are praised, but the balance is criticized as luck-driven and runs can feel punishingly long.
