How it feels

A strategic, retro-styled tactical RPG with deliberate, turn-based combat and a narrative-driven campaign.

What players say

Players are split on the challenge: some say it is too hard, others find it manageable with one-hit kill items. The game uses the SRPG Studio engine with basic assets, and long-time SRPG fans note its lack of permadeath and poor ally AI. Grammar and spelling issues are mentioned, along with the absence of a tutorial.
